The Unknowable Sea: Oceanic Beauty

By John Dilworth

We now have the third edition of this comprehensive reference work to enjoy. Beautiful and informative graphics, maps, and photos provide a thorough introduction to physical oceanography and marine life.

From the chemistry of saltwater to the geology of the bottom, all of the essential concepts and methods are introduced. The next two chapters focus on the ocean's most important ecosystems, the beach and the open sea, and their various marine life inhabitants. Both of these books provide in-depth reference sections with extensive visual profiles of noteworthy landmarks and animals. The book closes with a comprehensive atlas of the oceans and seas of the world, spanning 60 pages and illustrated with maps derived from satellite measurements of the ocean floor. Included throughout the book are feature spreads discussing human impacts on marine ecosystems, such as plastic pollution and ocean acidification.
