The authors reflect on the landscape as a space in which since time immemorial man has moved around, worked, lived and also ended his road through life. The specific subject is the Most Basin, known today especially for its up to 45-metres-thick coal seams.
It has been the exploitation of this brown coal that has brought about irreversible changes of the Most landscape - a loss of its memory. The study offers a view of the Most landscape from many angles: it deals with its structure, the functions of the individual elements of the landscape and also with the identification of changes that took place in space and time - all this by applying many scientific research disciplines.
