"View from Above" is a unique project that introduces readers to the effect of an overview, inviting them to look at the Earth from above and experience the feelings of astronauts observing the planet from a space station. This publication continues the conversation about the beauty and fragility of the Earth, begun in B. Grant's first book - "View from Above: Stunning Satellite Images of Earth".

Images obtained using satellites and aerial photography show how our planet is changing under the influence of natural forces and large-scale human activity, and not always for the better. The authors raise issues of the inevitable increase in environmental problems: global warming, deforestation, the consequences of excessive consumption, pollution of soil, air and water. Many photographs are made using the "timelapse" method - a series of sequential shots with a certain interval between them. This allows you to clearly see the speed of changes occurring in different parts of the world, and to realize that our planet needs care and protection. Only by understanding the extent of personal responsibility of each, we can preserve the natural resources and the unique landscape of our common human home.
