《變幻莫測的沙漠》

  大多數的人對沙漠的印象,不外乎炙熱發燙到能把腳趾頭烤焦的黃沙、乾旱缺水得讓人發狂,只想祈求天空能飄下幾滴雨水解渴,既嚴酷,又讓人絕望的乾旱「地獄」。但沙漠可不只是又乾又熱這麼簡單,信不信由你,冰天雪地的南極洲已被公認是……沙漠!祕魯納斯卡沙漠真的是外星人用來起降飛碟的跑道?撒哈拉沙漠竟然有鱷魚、長頸鹿和大象!變幻莫測的沙漠,完全顛覆你對沙漠的印象。

《翻天覆地的地震》

是認識地震很容易閱讀的書籍,全書以詼諧的文字和幽默插圖,讓讀者從各個方面來了解地震,有地球科學的、有神話傳說的、有資料和數據統整的,以及世界各地發生過的著名地震的故事和探討。舉一個例子來說吧!關於地震破壞程度的介紹,書中用一支「震爆樂團」來對比說明「修訂版麥卡里震度分級」。其中有一段是這麼說的:「例如,當你聽震爆樂團演唱《翻滾吧!地球》時,你聽到的聲音非常響亮,因為你就站在舞台面前。但是你的好友,因來晚了被擋在外面,他聽到的音樂就小聲多了。」用這樣有趣的方式,就能貼切表明,同一個地震會因為距離震央(舞臺)愈遠,感受到的震度愈弱。類似這樣用生活化的例子引導說明地震的相關知識,是這本書很有意思的特點。

《不可思議的火山》
  說到火山,人們多半會這麼描述:尖尖的錐形山峰,砰的一聲突然爆炸,山頂發出烈火,噴出濃煙和火紅的石塊,岩漿到處漫流,把所有東西燒毀殆盡。沒錯!火山的脾氣雖然火爆,也會造成損失。但信不信由你,火山其實沒有那麼壞。火山附近的土壤肥沃,生產的作物餵養無數的人;火山灰水泥是很好的建材,讓羅馬人建造了圓形競技場等令人讚歎的建築;甚至在遠古時期的地球,火山還創造了海洋……

《寒冷冰凍的極地》
