In the book "Atlantis from a Geographer's Perspective: Mapping the Fairy Land" Ulf Erlingsson analyses the original tale of Atlantis, and discusses possible historical origins of geographical facts behind the tale. He furthermore compares some remarkable archaeological finds to Plato’s account. The last part of the book is a discussion of what this might lead to, of philosophical aspects, and of what we today can learn from studying pre-historic disasters.

The author is a doctor in Physical Geography. As expert in under-water exploration, natural disasters, and the development of our planet’s geography during the past tens of thousands of years, he has the perfect background for evaluating Atlantis from a scientific perspective. In the book he strives to promote science, and writes "Science, logic and the analysis of arguments is not just for scientists; it is for everyone, always—it is the very foundation of our civilisation."
