Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A spectacular journey through the most beautiful nature preserves in Asia. This is probably the first volume dedicated to the natural wonders of Asia. Either because of their amazing landscapes, or because of their obvious popularity, America and Africa have always outclassed Asia in terms of fame and our knowledge of their natural heritage. However, the world's most extensive continent boasts an amazing and unique variety and diversity of environments, climates, ecosystems, geological structures, fauna and flora. This volume has been created as an invitation to discover all of Asia's wonders: Siberian glaciers populated by walruses and polar bears; Indonesia's rich equatorial forests, the habitat of orang-utans and rhinos; and much, much more. The volume's 44 selected regions, which include pictures of both famous and little-known places, are fully explained and magnificently portrayed. They are the "business-cards" of a continent that preserves huge areas of unchanged wilderness and stunning hotspots of biodiversity. These pictures, representing lives that - luckily or not - inevitably come into contact with humans, will take the readers on an extraordinary voyage of exploration that has no precedent in terms of completeness, iconographic quality and analysis. 383 colour photographs
