DesertsDeserts make up a third of the planet's land surface, but if you picture a desert, what comes to mind? A sandy wasteland? A drought parched dust bowl? An alien landscape devoid of all life forms?

Deserts make up a third of the planet's land surface, but if you picture a desert, what comes to mind? A sandy wasteland? A drought-parched dust bowl? An alien landscape devoid of all life forms? In this marvelous Very Short Introduction, geographer and popular science writer Nick Middleton reveals that deserts are places of immense natural charm and rich biodiversity. Typified by drought and extremes of temperature, they can be harsh and hostile, but Middleton shows that many deserts are also spectacularly beautiful, and on occasion they can teem with life. The author highlights how each desert is unique, describing their frequently fantastic life forms, extraordinary scenery, and long history of ingenious human habitation. Written by a respected scientist who enjoys a wide following for his Going to Extremes television series on National Geographic, Deserts tells you everything you ever wanted to know about these extraordinary places and captures their importance in the working of our planet.

The Jewelry box was a great Pink Color. I understand the dimensions were posted but I did not understand the box was as small as it was. The box however was sturdy and made with great quality. It is a great box for small non bulky jewelry. I would buy again.

Very nice for the price
Color: Jelly Pink, Size: 8"W, Color: Jelly Pink, Size: 8"W
This is a very nice jewelry case, especially for the price (around $10). I want to note that it is top heavy; even without the mirror inside the top part it tips over (won't sit flat on the bottom part when open, most of the time). There are some minor imperfections in the case, but nothing that will prevent it from doing its job and it still looks really nice. The necklace pocket does not have any dividers, it's one pocket. The zipper tabs look like they were painted, I'm not sure what material is underneath, but I'm hoping it does not chip over time. The stitching on the case looks nicely done.

Perfect for travel. Sturdy and will keep your items safe.
Color: Cloud White, Size: 8"W, Color: Cloud White, Size: 8"W
This was a galentines gift for a gift exchange. It comes with multiple compartments that are removable and can hold any type of jewelry from studs to necklaces, rings and bracelets. Any solid bracelet takes some maneuvering to hold. This is semi customizable to fit your needs and will house most jewelry items. The zipper does get stuck a bit but is a strong thick zipper and not super flimsy. The inserts on the sides can be removed, however, the ring inserts seem to be glued down. Bigger jewelry or chunky jewelry pieces may not fit well in this travel case. All in all it can hold quite a bit, the size is compact and perfect for travel and it’s a handy organizer for jewelry.
