Product Description
"This is the book we have hoped for, from the author of
The Silent World, bringing us up to date with his intimate and important role in the latest developments in sea exploration. Captain Cousteau has an understanding of the ways of marine scientists and a rare sensitivity for the sea and its creatures. He continues to open hew and exciting paths for marine scientists. How fortunate that he has found time for this book so that we can all follow his adventures in his teams' search to learn more about the sea. The chapters read like fantastic and wonderful tales told in a magical style that few writers and poets can give the reader." - Eugenie Clark, Director, Cape Haze Laboratory
"Whether Captain Cousteau is describing the recovery of artifacts from a Greek galleon sunk more than two centuries before Christ, or his battle to prevent the dumping of radioactive waste into the Mediterranean, he is unfailingly interesting." - The New York Times
