As the world's only island continent, Australia has an ancient and un ique geology. Over its vast history, it has at times been joined to othe r continents and, more recently, has drifted alone, providing it with so me habitats and landscapes that resemble few others around the globe.
Australia's great age makes it much flatter than the other continen ts and it is rarely beset by geological calamities such as large earthqu akes or volcanic activity; however, the hundreds of awe-inspiring iconic landscapes visited by millions each year are testament to the sheer mag nitude and magnificence of this land's geological past.
This book aims to teach you more about these marvellous landscapes and their form ation, history and cultural significance as icons of Australia.
