This book is not a geology textbook, but an entertaining story about our planet and the people who study it. You will learn about the transformations of rocks and minerals, how volcanoes arise, how islands grow and disappear, the origin of coal and oil, the history of the Earth and even... other planets.
And also about how dill helps to penetrate the secrets of the earth's interior, when the Baltic collided with Kazakhstan and what grew out of it, why the Dead Sea is so salty, when to buy a lead umbrella, how to deceive the helmsman without reading Jules Verne, and much, much more.
Readers will find hundreds of interesting facts, lively language, witty illustrations and experiments that can be easily carried out at home in the kitchen using a saucepan, a vacuum cleaner, a hair dryer and watercress. What do these objects have to do with geology? Read on and find out!
