Más información sobre el libro

The book explores the intricate relationship between humans and their environment, emphasizing the interplay of biological and non-biological factors that influence life. It distinguishes between 'environment'—defined by human interactions—and 'nature,' which encompasses natural elements independently. Key topics include the impact of weather, climate, soil types, and topography on environmental conditions. Additionally, it categorizes the Earth's surface into four spheres: lithosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and biosphere, with some interpretations including the ice sphere.
