Skuif handel oor die evolusie van ons węreld vanaf die begin van lewe tot in die toekoms. Die boek gee ’n ongelooflike oorsig van elke tydperk in die aarde se tektoniese geskiedenis. Hierdie verstommende visuele voorstelling van die aarde se geologiese geskiedenis beskryf die verskuiwing van landmassas en die ontwikkeling van die kontinente soos ons dit vandag ken.
Met pragtige węreldkaarte en illustrasies wat die oorsprong van lewe uitbeeld en die aarde se moontlike toekoms vorspel, is Skuif die ideale gids tot ons planeet se geskiedenis. Martin Ince beskryf op toeganklike wyse wat die impak van geologiese veranderinge op die lewe op aarde is.
Landscape is never static, but changes continuously when seen in
relation to human occupation, movement, labor, and discourse.
Contested Territory explores the ways in which Peru's early
colonial landscapes were experienced and portrayed, especially by
the Spanish conquerors but also by their conquered subjects. It
focuses on the role played by indigenous groups in shaping the
Spanish experiences of landscapes, the diverse geographical images
of Peru and ways in which these were constructed and contested, and
what this can tell us about the nature of colonial relations in
post-conquest Peru. This exceptional study, which draws from
archival records and sources such as cartographies, offers a richly
nuanced view of the complexity of colonial relations. It will be
read with appreciation by those interested in Spanish history,
geography, and colonialism.
