Details on the CD

In this section, we would like to give you a better idea of the detailed information that is presented in this work. Please keep in mind that this is still only a sample of what is available. Please also keep in mind that the CD-rom is extensively narrated and the user-interface and navigation you can do is far more interesting than could be portrayed by this website. In addition, there are background sounds, music and video on the CD that enhance the experience of the virtual tour we tried to create.
