<p class="x_MsoNormal">I am hunting around for a word that describes the time-neutral study of life on Earth. “Paleontology” and “Biology” are both time-specific (the former explicitly, the latter by usage) and “integrated biology” is not clear. Is there a
word that means “the study of life regardless of time”?</p>
