Review: Incredible book with amazing photos! - This is an incredibly beautiful book, and it is full of fascinating information about the world we live in. Though I bought this as a resource for homeschool, I have spent quite a bit of time just looking at it and enjoying it on my own. It's too advanced to teach from for second grade, but the pictures can speak to anyone if any age, and it will still be good in a few years for teaching. I highly recommend this book to anyone. You will not regret the purchase!
Review: This book is, quite simply, a treasure! - You can't get a better introduction to Earth sciences than this. It is told by way of the history of earth itself, starting with the Big Bang. It is beautifully designed, so that even a single pair of large pages offers a wealth of thought provoking information. Photographs, diagrams, history, text, are used in a consistent way for all of the many topics covered. The book has a detailed index, as well as in-chapter cross references. It also has something you almost never see--a to-scale timeline of all history--showing how very recent we and all we know are.

This is an incredibly beautiful book, and it is full of fascinating information about the world we live in.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Beautiful Book filled with Easy to Understand Writings
*by M***I on December 14, 2013*

A lot of work went into the making of this very educational book. I have purchased a copy for my son-in-law and also, my daughter has her copy. It would be beautiful even if it were just placed on a coffee table, however when you open the cover a whole new world opens up in an easy to read and understandable style. Should anyone have a thirst for knowledge and a love of nature this is the book for him/her.
