The origin of the Universe and the dawn of life on Earth, the vanished world of the dinosaurs and the evolution of living beings, the discovery of fire by Neanderthals and the first art of Homo sapiens, the creation of the seven wonders of the ancient world and the inner workings of modern technical achievements – these are just a small fraction of what will come into focus as soon as you open these pages. The structure of the book and the selection of thematic illustrations help one feel the entire world in the dynamics of its continuous development and understand the multifaceted interconnections between various phenomena.
But how do you find out what lies in the depths of the Sun or the Earth? What makes up a power plant? How can you see what is inside a storm, a rainbow, an earthquake, or a volcano? A drop of water? The smallest atom? With this book, you won’t have to take anything apart. Open the topic that interests you and study the contents of these pages as much as you like. Concise reference information, diagrams, maps, and drawings visually complement the topics of the articles.
