The book is about one of the most amazing phenomena of northern nature. Alas is exclusively the result of thawing of frozen rocks of the permafrost zone and is inherent only in Central Yakutia. The book incorporates the result of many years of research work of the whole institute. It lifts the veil of the secret of how the Yakuts managed to survive in this harsh cold land. The text is accompanied by a large number of colorful photographs.
