Introducing The Natural History Book - a complete guide to the nature and wildlife of our world and written by a worldwide team of natural history experts.

Already featuring galleries of more than 5,000 species, The Natural History Book has since been updated to include dynamic discoveries such as the olinguito (the "kitty bear" of the Andean cloud forest), and a new species of deep-sea Bolosoma glass sponge photographed by the NOAA Ship Okeanos Explorer, alongside a reorganization of the groups of living things to reflect the latest scientific understanding. Explore each and every page of this stunning nature book to discover: - A full-colour gallery of over 5,000 species - Over 500 rocks, minerals and fossils featured throughout - Includes glossary of important natural history terms - Specially-commissioned photographs showcase wildlife in close-up detail This treasure-trove of natural history is accompanied with easy-to-read, accessible information and beautifully-striking imagery, making it a riveting reference guide to pass down for generations to come. The only book to offer a complete visual survey of all kingdoms of life, this nature book for adults is the perfect addition to every family bookshelf, as well as an ideal gift for the nature, animal and plant lover in your life! Gardeners, hikers, and visitors to wildlife park and natural history museums alike would also love this niche nature book, which also doubles up as the perfect coffee table book. Split into 6 core chapters, covering Living Earth, Minerals, Rocks and Fossils, Microscopic Life, Plants, Fungi, and Animals - there truly is something for everyone to explore, love and learn.

Excellent book by DK as expected.
Seems interesting and comprehensive at first look. I already own the Book "Animal- a definitive visual guide by DK.". It has almost half the content from the natural history book, in a more detailed manner. The new parts in the natural history book are Rocks, Minerals, plants and tiny organisms.

Amazing book
Beautiful book, the depth of knowledge, pictures and facts is astounding. I bought this for reference for my art work, as suggested by a person whom I follow on social media. I never expected it to be as beautiful as it is. My grandson would also love this too as its full of facts about our world, which he is fascinated by. Well worth the money.

Insane that so little money can get so much quality
DK never fails. Yet another publication that is full to the brim with quality, I got it for additional texts regarding context- it’s more than a list of animals plants and rocks
