Michael Martin Libri

Frutto di cinque anni di riprese avventurose attraverso tutti i deserti della terra, questo viaggio introduce il lettore in una dimensione diversa, dove è ancora possibile vivere la natura nella sua forma più incontaminata. L'autore ci rivela il volto suggestivo e immensamente affascinante dei deserti del nostro pianeta, ma anche le difficoltà e l'ingegnosità delle popolazioni che quei deserti sono riusciti ad abitare. Questo volume racconta e illustra davvero tutti i deserti del nostro pianeta, da quelli più famosi come il Deserto sabbioso del Sahara o quello di Atacama in Cile, il più asciutto del mondo, ai deserti stepposi come il Gobi oppure insoliti come il Deserto dipinto in Arizona, fino a quelli meno noti, "minori" ma non per questo meno affascinanti, come le Bardenas Reales de Navarra oppure il Gran Deserto Indiano.

From the Rub al-Khali and the Sinai to the Great Sandy, the Great Basin and the Kalahari, Michael Martin, an internationally renowned photographer, has travelled through every desert on Earth, crossing Asia, Australia, the Americas and Africa, to compile this beautifully photographed volume. Far from being bleak and barren wastelands, these deserts boast natural features of staggering beauty. Afghanistan’s Bamian region is notable for its deep turquoise lakes set amidst towering, rocky mountains. The Danakil’s unnamed volcanoes glow in the Ethiopian night, while Chile’s Atacama region harbours geysers that can erupt at any moment. In addition to these awe-inspiring landscapes, Martin introduces us to the stoic peoples who eke out an existence in such inhospitable environments.

"In his latest work, Sophia in Exile, Michael Martin explores the great themes of Sophiology—among them Creation and creativity, ontology and eschatology, poetic metaphysics and marriage—and calls into question the technocratic assumptions and commitments of the Zeitgeist. Using the tools of philosophy, theology, literary criticism, and autobiography, this probing text opens the sophianic core of the adventure of being fully human."--Publisher information
