Man And Sea Book

Product Description

Spanning from the arctic to the tropics, from large-scale views of Australia’s barrier reef to close-up images of sea turtles, Man and Sea is a compelling, entirely unique journey through a fascinating world. Spectacular aerial images by Yann Arthus-Bertrand and striking underwater photographs by Brian Skerry offer a top-to-bottom tour of the world’s oceans, while the enlightening text covers the sea’s critical mechanisms, from currents to food chains. Inspiring interviews of some of the world’s most respected researchers and activists also offer cutting-edge insight into the many challenges, such as overfishing and pollution, facing the oceans today. Exploring the critical and ever-evolving relationship between mankind and the ocean, Man and Sea is an unforgettable portrait of the global issue of sustainable development.

Praise for Man and Sea:

“Mr. Skerry’s Technicolor image of hard corals on the Kingman Reef far out in the Pacific and Mr. Bertrand’s shot of the pale sand of Whitsunday Island near the Great Barrier Reef are cool and timeless portraits of treasures we might easily think limitless.” ―The Editors, Wall Street Journal

There's the usual eco-talk of endangerment here as expected, don't disregard it but feast your eyes on the spectacular photos of our brothers and sisters below the surface: they are the unseen heroes of the universe.

the combination of views, one from the air, one up close, create a marvel. Color, beauty, design. A view few will see, but many can enjoy now.

I really love this book. It is very informative and the photos are wonderful. This book has really opened up my eyes as to how we as Hans effect the ocean, but also what we can do to help change our actions. Very well written.
