Natural Wonders of the World (DK Wonders of the World) Hardcover – October 3, 2017

Entertaining

Magical almost, as normal as it is going from a valley to the mountains to plateaus and to take a boat to the sea, the features of the Earth can look like a given. Through this book I got to know what was to me the history of the five continents and the seas. Of course in elementary school everybody has been taught about the formation of mountains and Pangea, and volcanos, but here in this book it was something like watching the Earth through the Borges' Aleph, a small sphere showing you all the time and all the space everything at once in your palm. I even got the reason to exist of my birthplace.The kindle formatting is excellent! square books usually are badly formatted but this is an exception and an example of how to read this editions. I found it more comfortable to read in the kindle app for the computer. The selection of photos for the most part is in good taste: they are well composed and look natural, very few overdone HDRs, most of the photos show what eyes will see. The diagrams are didactic and spectacular. This book is a winner that should be in any library of the world, I will get a physical copy.

Amazing photography and compelling geographical information. The world we enjoy today has taken millions of years to form and continues to change every minute of every day. We are but a snapshot in time as our planet continues to evolve. Truly awe inspiring

I'm not a geology expert at all, so from a layman's point of view, I feel that the explanation about the various phenomenon that created these natural wonders is explained with enough detail to keep the reader interested and not make him/her feel overwhelmed with excess information. To me, that's important as a reader.The Information presented in the book is awe-inspiring. Add to it a bit of your own google search and you could enjoy the book even more. Being a designer, I am picky about information hierarchy and good presentation of it. And this book is laid out and designed beautifully (thumbs up to the designers). The pages don't feel too heavy on text, and the information is organized clearly. That's how books should be. If you are attracted by the way information is presented, you are most likely to read it, learn from it, and above all have an enjoyable experience.

The book is great, I bought it with a great discount that was good. I bought the kindle edition which is available whenever I go for travel or on the move, great service.

Beautiful photos. Intriguing information. Definitely an impetus to travel and see the world.

Waiting for the new edition to be released.

If you are lover of the nature like me, you will enjoy this book. The original price of the book was $50 but Kindle edition is just over $11 and can be read on Kindle APP on the PC with beautiful Pictures worth looking at on a big screen. You can Zoom in as well. The description is brief. The book is over 400 pages of great pictures. Good for kids and adults. I liked it so much that I ordered a hard copy from Used books for just over $8 + shipping (still cheaper than the brand new price of $27 on Amazon.
