Synopsis All the Way Down: Ocean by : Alex Woolf

All The Way Down is an ingenious new information book series looking at different ecosystems, from the organisms that live near its top to the creatures that dwell near the bottom. Ocean explores the sea creatures that live at different depths, from the organisms that live in rock pools and the shallows to the strange animals that lurk in the abyss, as well as examining how pollution and climate change are affecting the oceans' ecosystems. Each spread features bold, colorful, and eye-catching illustrations of the different animal and plant species, plus easy-to-digest, bite-sized factoids about the creatures. A ruler running down the side of each spread highlights the different depths, and a magnetic clasp shows the entire ecosystem from top to bottom.

Synopsis Boojums All the Way Through by : N. David Mermin

Boojums All the Way Through is a collection of essays that deals in a variety of ways with the problem of communicating modern physics to both physicists and non-physicists. The author is Professor David Mermin, a well-known theoretical physicist, who recently won the first Julius Edgar Lileinfeld prize of the American Physical Society 'for his remarkable clarity and wit as a lecturer to nonspecialists on difficult subjects'. David Mermin's wry humour is clearly apparent in most of these articles, but even those that are more serious are characterized by a liveliness and commitment to finding startlingly simple ways of presenting ideas that are traditionally regarded as complex. This book will appeal to physicists at all levels, to mathematicians, scientists and engineers, and indeed to anyone who enjoys reading non-technical accounts of new ways of looking at modern science.

We swim in it. We Swallow it. We are even made of it (mostly).

Synopsis The Ocean of Life by : Callum Roberts

A Silent Spring for oceans, written by "the Rachel Carson of the fish world" (The New York Times) Who can forget the sense of wonder with which they discovered the creatures of the deep? In this vibrant hymn to the sea, Callum Roberts—one of the world’s foremost conservation biologists—leads readers on a fascinating tour of mankind’s relationship to the sea, from the earliest traces of water on earth to the oceans as we know them today. In the process, Roberts looks at how the taming of the oceans has shaped human civilization and affected marine life. We have always been fish eaters, from the dawn of civilization, but in the last twenty years we have transformed the oceans beyond recognition. Putting our exploitation of the seas into historical context, Roberts offers a devastating account of the impact of modern fishing techniques, pollution, and climate change, and reveals what it would take to steer the right course while there is still time. Like Four Fish and The Omnivore’s Dilemma, The Ocean of Life takes a long view to tell a story in which each one of us has a role to play.
