Knowledge of rocks and the phenomena that underlie them is a fundamental key to observing and understanding the landscapes that surround us.
This book is an introduction to this body of knowledge, presented in a simple, highly visual way using French examples. It explores the diversity of rocks and major geological phenomena, as well as the landscape typologies associated with them. The final section deals with the major categories of fossils that have marked the Earth's history. Let's not be afraid of geology or geomorphology! These are beautiful sciences, because they open doors to understanding the world around us. Easy to understand, and free from the sometimes difficult vocabulary of specialists, this guide is an invitation to open up to the Earth, its secrets and its wonders. Because the more we know about our planet, the more we respect it.
