DK Guide to the Savage Earth
Description:
This book provides a remarkable account of our planet's structure and the literally Earth-shattering process that shape it -- often with savage consequences for human being and other living things. Lavishly and spectacularly illustrated, with many unusual views of the Earth and its features, DK Guide to Savage Earth offers a comprehensive approach to understanding the making and shaping of planet Earth. No stone is left unturned as the Earth's physical processes are clearly explained, from the churning currents of molten rock inside the Earth that smash continents together and pull oceans apart to the relentless action of turbulent volcanoes, rivers of ice, and seismic shudders. Large-format photographs from the world's very best photographers, together with specially created digital images, create a breathtaking portrait of the power of our planet. Front cover: Costa Rica's Arenal volcano erupts at night. At 5,356 ft high, and constantly active since 1968, Arenal maintains the almost perfect conical shape that makes it the typical volcano.
