A reader's journey through the geological history of Iceland. A tale of the creation of Iceland and how it became what it is today. A venture into the
natural wonders; into a variety of volcanic phenomena and the geothermal wonderland, blending into the largest glaciated areas in Europe and situated
at a hotspot of the global tectonic system. You will also find here an overview of the rocks and minerals, the dynamic marine environment, the
climatic history and the present climatic trend which is of importance in the context of global warming and spurs the quest for renewable, clean
energy resources, where Iceland has a prominent role.
