Inspired by the question, What are they doing right at this moment on the other side of the world? this book focuses on natural and human events happening all over the world in the same second. Talking about the world and how its so different in places but also so similar and shared, so incredible and surprising, the books takes us to New York, Chicago, Mexico, Portugal, Angola, Turkey, Greece, Italy, Hungry, Brazil, and South Africa, among others.So, while you sit turning the pages of this book, things are happening everywhere. Somewhere, a wave is reaching the shore. Elsewhere, an orange falls from a tree. In yet other places, theres a traffic jam, a stuck elevator, and someones going to sleep. Inevitably, a book is coming to an end as another is beginning. Time is always in a hurry, never, ever stopping, and yet as you focus on these lovely illustrations, which stand as true evocations of place, time begins to slow down and, for moments, it even feels as if time has stopped, and you are transported out of the flow of time and into the wholeness and purity of a moment. A moment of bird flight; a moment of daydreaming while washing the dishes; a moment of wondering how something felt and what came next.Isabel Minhs Martins is a Portuguese author and publisher whose words are found in works of poetry, childrens books, magazines, comic books, and scripts for animations.

I gifted 'The World in a Second' to my sister who loves photography and travel. She was thrilled! The images are so vivid, and it's perfect for her coffee table. A great pick for anyone who appreciates art and exploration.

Arrived with a Damaged Cover
I was really excited to receive 'The World in a Second', but it came with a dented cover. The visuals are stunning, so I’m a bit disappointed about the packaging. I hope the replacement comes in better condition.

Interesting but Lacks Depth
The concept of 'The World in a Second' is really captivating, but I found some sections a bit shallow. It’s beautiful to look at, but I was hoping for more detailed information on some topics. Still worth having on my shelf.

A Unique Coffee Table Book
I bought 'The World in a Second' for my living room, and it's been a hit! The stunning visuals are perfect for sparking conversations. It’s not just a book, it’s an art piece that guests love to flip through.
