Condizione: New. Condizione sovraccoperta: New. First Edition. THE STORY OF A PLANET IN PICTURES A substantial and visually impressive reference work that presents the history, structure, and dynamic processes of Earth through hundreds of large-format color illustrations, maps, diagrams, satellite images, and scientific reconstructions. Produced with contributions from an international team of specialists, the volume was designed to make complex earth science accessible through visual presentation without sacrificing scientific rigor. From plate tectonics and ocean trenches to climate systems, polar environments, dinosaurs, minerals, volcanoes, and the evolution of life, the book captures Earth's interconnected systems on a global scale. The lavish illustrations and double-page spreads make it equally useful as a reference, educational resource, and browsing volume for anyone interested in geology, geography, natural history, paleontology, or environmental science. PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Large-format hardcover. 10.75 inches tall. 608 pages with index. Profusely illustrated throughout in full color with photographs, satellite imagery, maps, diagrams, geological reconstructions, timelines, and scientific illustrations. Many dramatic double-page visual spreads. CONDITION: New - No Flaws or Blemishes; Gift Quality. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE - Published during a period of growing public interest in climate science, biodiversity, and earth-system studies, the volume reflects the increasing use of satellite imaging, digital mapping, and advanced visualization techniques in scientific communication. It stands as an ambitious attempt to bring contemporary earth science to a broad readership through visual storytelling.

Geological history, oceanography, meteorology, ecology, paleontology, and planetary processes are woven together through richly illustrated thematic sections. Large-format imagery allows readers to visualize ocean-floor topography, glacial landscapes, volcanic systems, ancient ecosystems, and continental-scale geological formations with unusual clarity.
