THIS ATLAS has been written and compiled for nature lovers who are not scientists. It is a general, first introduction to our natural environment and restricts itself to those aspects of nature with which we come into contact in our daily lives: the rocks, trees and wildflowers; the birds and animals; the amphibians, reptiles, fishes and insects.
All technical data are held to a minimum. Any readers who are stimulated by the maps, paintings and text to probe more deeply into any of the fields covered, will find good guidebooks and scientific works available which supplement and extend this Nature Atlas on every desired level and for every type of study.
