From sandy deserts, through rocky wadis to rugged mountains and dramatic coasts, this book presents a portfolio of nature’s handiwork in the Gulf region. Illustrated by a superb selection of photographs, it also looks at man’s interaction with the landscape and the effects of the modern age on the delicate balance of nature.

It’s an insight into the sudden changes in the weather of the Arabian Peninsula, and into the way that the whole landscape slowly forms and changes itself, with the movement of the sand and gravel, the sudden shock of the water and the constant, steady glare of the sun.
