‘After Man’ is a retro-art filled speculative zoology book written by Dougal Dixon. The book is part of a trilogy alongside ‘Man After Man’ and ‘The New Dinosaurs’ — I have a video on The new Dinosaurs in the archive. After Man also influenced other series like the Future is Wild, and C. M. Kosemen’s infamous ‘All Tomorrows.’
‘After Man’s’ impact no surprise, as the post-human Earth Dixon brings to life within the pages feels so familiar, and yet so alien. And the biology of the futuristic animals he showcases are so strange, it’s worth taking a closer look. So, for this entry into the archive, we’re going to break down the animal ecosystems of the far future, bearing in mind that some of the science is outdated, and it’s impossible to know exactly what such a world would look like. Think of this book and this video as just an interesting guess.
So, let’s leap forwards fifty million years, and discover what types of fantastical species might now reign over the planet.
