The wonders of the world that are discussed in the book have been the subject of many books over the centuries, but our aim is to present something much more enlightening, stimulating and engaging than straightforward description. From ingenuity to ancient engineering (Pyramids) to the innovation of modern marvels, Greatest Wonders of the World reveals the greatest wonders (both Natural and Man-made) that the world has ever seen. This striking book covers in splendid detail - the ancient wonders; natural wonders; the modern wonders; the later historical wonders; and underwater wonders. Through this book readers can peer into the world's marvels, such as the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the unforgettable Taj Mahal, and the extraordinary Three Gorges Dam in China and many more [Abstract from the Publishers]
