The Earth (MiniCube) (CubeBook)

This is the second volume in an innovative series of great visual impact. It is dedicated to the Earth with a particular regard for its most spectacular and beautiful landscapes, and for the relationship that man has created with it. The preface of the book discusses the topics of the book and orders them in an original though logical sequence. The fifteen chapters illustrate the most spectacular aspects of the Earth's various environments - such as mountains, seas, deserts and forests, with special sections dedicated to places of extreme nature (glaciers, volcanoes, canyons, waterfalls, etc.) - capable of arousing admiration, lyricism, wonder and emotion. The landscapes and colours of the Planet of Marvels are illustrated by the world's greatest photographers with high impact pictures commented upon with passion and humour. The photographs have been selected for their visual impact, then emphasized by modern graphics, to take the reader on a fabulous journey around the natural beauty of our planet.
