Adventures in Volcanoland charts journeys across deserts, through jungles and up ice caps, to some of the world's most important volcanoes, from Nicaragua to Hawaii, Santorini to Ethiopia, exploring Tamsin Mather's obsession with these momentous geological formations, the cultural and religious roles they have played in the minds of those living around them at different times throughout history, and the science behind their formation and eruptions. Volcanoes help to make and shape our world, bursting forth from inside of the earth and, in many places, looming over us. Present since the earth's beginning they continue to maintain its life support systems and, their extraordinary chemistry may even have created the ingredients needed for life to kick start. In some places volcanoes are even beginning to provide us with part of the energy we need to curb our use of fossil fuels. They have fascinated humans for millennia, their eruptions charted throughout history, seeming to show us how the earth has been living, breathing and changing for billions of years. Why exactly are these geological mammoths found where they are? What can they teach us about our environment, the Anthropocene and the ecological disaster that is climate change? Are there volcanoes on other planets, and what might they tell us about whether we could one day live there if we exhaust our own habitat? How can we predict if or when volcanoes might explode?Adventures in Volcanoland is an enthralling mix of travel, science and environmental writing for fans of Robert MacFarlane and Raynor Winn.,Binding: Hardback,

Pricey, but Now I Get It
Color: Matte Black/Black Polarizedarized, Polarization Type: Polarized, Lens Width: 50 Millimeters
So I’m not the kind of guy who’s going to spend hundreds of dollars on a pair of shades just because they say Oakley or Ray-Ban or whatever. If that’s you, that’s cool—I’m not judging. I just can’t justify it. But when the opportunity to check these out came along, well, of course I had to try them. And let me tell you, now I at least get it.
The quality of these sunglasses is so much better than I would have expected—and frankly, way better than anything I’ve ever owned—that I could probably stomach the price if I had to buy new ones. The frames feel both heavy-duty and lightweight at the same time. The lenses are absolutely spectacular. I’ve had other polarized glasses, and they’re good, but these are on another level. The clarity, protection, and color are all top-notch.
The style, for me, is a little more miss than hit, but they look a lot better on my wife, so it’s a win for her. I’m a big guy with a big melon, so while these are great-looking sunglasses, they’re a bit small for my face. If I was going for a certain look, they might have done the trick, but this is all subjective anyway. If you love the way these look online, you’ll love the way they look in person.
Even if the style didn’t quite suit me, I’d say my only actual complaint about the glasses is that they have very flat frames. If you don’t have a perfectly straight nose or face, they may feel a bit crooked when you’re wearing them. And since there’s no way to adjust them, there’s no way to fix that. Fortunately, not only do these fit and look better on my wife, but this wasn’t an issue for her, and I suspect it won’t be for most people. However, if you’re the type who typically has to adjust the nose pads on your glasses, these might not work for you.
Overall, the design and quality of these sunglasses are so good that even though they didn’t really work for me, there’s simply no way I can’t recommend them. The price is higher than I’d usually consider, and for the cost I do wish they came with a hard case instead of just a sleeve. But that’s a minor nitpick—and I get the price now. You really do get what you pay for. If you’re like me, you might feel a little buyer’s remorse when you hit “purchase,” but I assure you, once they arrive and you put them on (assuming you like the way they look and fit), you’ll have a hard time going back to anything less. Buy with confidence.

Great retirement gift
Purchased this as a 43 year retirement gift. He absolutely loves it. At first I wasn't sure about the orange detail but it makes the watch stand out. Excellent purchase.

Great - just not for me.
Yep! It's jazzed out with everything you need for a beautiful, Sporty chronograph. My key attraction was the red colored second hand until I actually held it. Not so easy to see in various light as I had hoped for. Otherwise, a great Quality watch from a great legendary company!
