Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is an extensive account of the Earth's geographic landscape, which covers three-fourths of its surface. It is one of two such works by the author, the other being a preparatory volume intended for younger readers. The author emphasizes that this volume is designed for in-depth study and should not be used as a simple reference tool. Several concepts are introduced, including the spherical nature of the Earth, its axial tilt, and its orbit around the sun, and how these factors influence seasonal changes and time zones. The author also discusses the atmosphere, including the effects of solar radiation and precipitation. The final section of the book deals with the distribution of plant and animal life on different continents. The author has included a number of questions and exercises designed to help students understand the material, along with appendixes of tables and definitions.
