Desde la lava que sale de un volcán y las tormentas con rayos y truenos hasta los animales que viven en la arena y en el fondo del mar. El mundo está lleno de maravillas impresionantes.
Esta es una introducción informativa y visualmente llamativa sobre nuestro planeta Tierra. La esencia de este libro son las fotografías grandes y detalladas de objectos concretos, la mayoría lo suficientemente pequeños como para tener en la palma de la mano. Cada objeto revela muchísima información sobre un aspecto en particular de los medios de la Tierra y de su funcionamiento. Por ejemplo, burbujas de aire atrapadas dentro de un núcleo de hielo antártico revelan cómo el clima de la Tierra ha cambiado con el tiempo. Un fragmento de piedra que fue arrojado varias millas al aire por un volcán ayuda a explicar qué sucede cuando las placas tectónicas chocan. El libro está estructurado en torno a un viaje imaginario que lleva al lector del centro a la superficie de la Tierra (incluídas la tierra y los océanos) y hasta las capas superiores de la atmósfera. A través de entornos como pastizales, bosques y arrecifes, 'Tierra' explora reinos vivos e inanimados. Las dobles páginas destacadas ponen el foco en lugares icónicos, como la selva amazónica o el Mar Muerto, o en procesos ecológicos concretos, como la erosión glacial. Muchos de los rincones más fascinantes del mundo natural nos resultan innacesibles: este hermoso e informativo libro los pone a nuestro alcance. This is an informative, visually arresting introduction to planet Earth. The core of the book features large, detailed photographs of single objects, many of them small enough to be held in one hand, that each speak volumes about an aspect of Earth's environments and how they work. For example, bubbles of ancient air trapped inside an Antarctic ice core reveal how Earth's climate has changed over time. A piece of pumice thrown several miles into the air by a volcano helps explain what happens when tectonic plates collide. The book is structured around an imaginary journey that takes the reader from the inner core to Earth's surface (including both land and oceans) and up to the top of the atmosphere. Taking in environments such as grasslands, forests, and reefs, the coverage includes both living and inanimate realms. Feature spreads each throw a spotlight on an iconic place, such as the Amazon Rainforest or the Dead Sea, or a particular process, such as glacial erosion. Many of the most fascinating parts of the natural world are beyond reach. This beautiful, informative book brings them up close and within our grasp.
