Natural Wonders of the World

A truly wonderful work!
A colourful, visual feast of a book which transports you to the various Continents highlighting a fair selection of fascinating sites which provide an engrossing selection of interesting features. The photography and accompanying art work are exquisite and the related text is concise, but more than enough to supply adequate, interesting information. It also has a handy directory and a good index to help you find what looking for quickly. It is a big, quite heavy book that will be at home on a coffee table or sturdy bookshelf. A great addition to any home library, it would also make an ideal gift. DK publications have always been good value for money, tackling a wide range of subjects, and have been steadily improving on all fronts. I think this is probably their best effort yet.

Beautiful book
For anyone who is interested in science and nature, you will love it. It's a quality book with both concise text, and stunning photos. One can use it for reference and skim through the salient points and stats, or read it verbatim. Either way, it's a good read without being too compound complex. The pages are colour-coded for ease of category search,

Wow!!
This is an utterly fantastic book in my opinion. It is stacked full of the most brilliant and stunningly beautiful photography from every corner of the globe. It also has explanations of processes including colour illustrations and diagrams. How could anyone fail to be impressed really. At this price its totally amazing!!

Not amazing
We have lots of DK books we like but this one is just not inspiring sadly. My daughter briefly looked at it once. Shame.

Great book for nature lovers
As always the high quality I expect from DK books. Wonderful photography and illustrations show the natural wonders of the world around us. For someone who doesn’t travel much this is a great book to discover the natural areas of beauty and awe. Would highly recommend to anyone who loves nature.
