faaus72 This fine series is a fascinating look into the shaping and adaptation of our world...all of it! Our guide is a very coherent Geologist, who tells the stories of the history and Future of the planet. He does so in a captivating, logical and brilliant manner, highlighted by a pleasant Scottish burr.So much more than simply Geology is explained. Rather flora and fauna and the effects that earth-events had on them is made clear.This is a treat for all the senses!
