Publisher Description: Egypt is a land of timeless monuments and artifacts. It is also a land marked by the changes brought by the modern world; where camel drivers talk on cell phones and ancient tombs are moved to make way for modern dam building projects. With photographs, this work addresses the problems of pollution, global warming, and erosion on the land. |
