      Ako ste ju nikdy predtým nevideli. Podrobnejšie informácie o knihe Planéta Zem - Ako ste ju nikdy predtým nevideli: Kniha, ilustrovaná približne 400 pozoruhodnými fotografiami zo života zvierat a prírody, je súčasťou jedného z najambicióznejších televíznych projektov venovaných krásam našej planéty. Mnohé fotografie zachytávajú neprístupné miesta, ktoré malo možnosť vidieť iba niekoľko ľudí, či správanie zvierat, ktoré ešte nikdy predtým nebolo nafilmované alebo nafotografované. Tím autorov tejto knihy a rovnomenného televízneho seriálu preto pri svojej práci použil najmodernejšie dokumentaristické prostriedky.

    • Ours is a watery planet, with two-thirds of its surface made up of water. Yet few places on Earth retain their secrets as well as oceans. Beyond the shorelines lies a largely undiscovered world, with its secrets only just beginning to be revealed. The Blue Planet explores this fascinating environment in all its variety, from the apparent 'desert' of the open ocean to the abyssal depths where monstrous creatures lurk in the darkness. The Blue Planet is divided into seven chapters, each focusing on a single habitat, which combine to form a comprehensive guide to the world's oceans. A series of smaller, specialist-interest books associated with The Blue Planet are being published simultaneously which each take an in-depth look at particular marine animals.
