%X This book presents Australia's geological evolution as seen through the  lens of human impacts. 

Exploring the geology, resources and landscapes  of Australia, the book reveals how these have helped to shape this  nation’s society, environment and wealth. Presented in a refreshingly  non-linear format, the book summarises much of what we know about this  country’s geological history, discussing the fossil record and evolution  of life across the continent, describing its mineral and energy  reserves, and revealing the significance of its coastal and groundwater  systems.
