Więcej o książce
Taking a journey through the world of nature, this book explores the lives and habits of the animals and plants with which we share the planet. The main part of the book is divided into six thematic sections, each of which deals with a major aspect of the natural world: the living planet - the origin of life, simple life forms and the principles of evolution; the plant kingdom - structure, physiology and diversity; the animal kingdom - past and present, from dinosaurs to mammals; animal behavior and physiology - from communication and social organization to reproduction and perception; ecosystems and habitats - principles of ecology and ecosystems; and threats to the planet - pollution, habitat loss and nature conservation. Each section consists of a series of self-contained but interrelated articles, and a 72-page A-Z "fact-finder" is included at the end of the book.
