"Combining scientific information with an accessible writing style, Ellen Wohl, PhD, gives the readers an understanding of our planet's geologic and geographic changes, with descriptions of each representative location you will visit with her. For nonscientific readers like this reviewer, the experience will be an epiphany, and you will probably find yourself rereading individual sections to savor them more fully later."—Colorado Central Magazine"This is not a science book per se. Rather it is a book that shows how an earth scientist brings into focus the many subtle changes affecting natural systems. The landscapes readers encounter through Wohl's book will prompt them to experience and value the natural world themselves."—CHOICE
