The book adopts an interdisciplinary approach, blending earth sciences, geography, and nature to examine geological formations, biodiversity, and cultural evolution. It begins by defining the criteria for "major islands" and then delves into case studies like Greenland, New Guinea, and Madagascar. Each island's geographical features, biodiversity, and human cultures are explored in detail, using geological surveys, ecological studies, and anthropological research to offer a holistic analysis. The book progresses by providing detailed geographical descriptions followed by analysis of unique ecosystems and anthropological exploration of human cultures that have developed on each island.
