Product Description

Product Description

In this oversized volume, award-winning photographer Philippe Bourseiller documents the awesome power and devastating aftermath of volcanoes. More than 170 full-color double spreads depict the volatile outbursts of active volcanoes with photos of red-hot oceans and rivers of fire, massive craters and islands formed from molten rock, and silt-coated towns. The book begins with a discussion of how volcanoes have been alternately worshiped and feared by different cultures throughout history and ends with a chapter on what is currently known by science about the natural phenomena behind volcanic eruptions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Spectacular Photography, 17 Jan 2003
By Nat (Wolverhampton, W Midlands United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This is a fantastic book with large, glossy, breath-taking images of all aspects of volcanoes. From close ups of lava flows to massive panoramas.

It doesn't go into technical geological information on volcanoes - it just gives you the chance to marvel at their awsome power and beauty. If you want it as a coffee table book, make sure you have a big coffee table!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent photography, interesting science, 13 Dec 2004
By A Customer
An excellent beginner's look at volcanology. Amazing photographs which show the sheer scale and beauty of volcanoes, and the lengths scientists will got to in order to get close to them
