It was so much fun to talk to the world-renowned oceanographer and National Geographic Explorer in Residence, Dr. Sylvia Earle. A leader in the field, she is known as “Her Deepness” — and her book,  Oceans – A Global Odyssey, is one that you should not miss.

This beautiful book celebrates the immensity of the oceans teaming with life, while highlighting the challenges facing this life from overfishing, plastics, and climate change.

The spotlight in on the remarkable diversity of life in the sea, from sponges, kelp, and zooplankton to whales, sharks, and sea turtles. The spectacular photographs are stunning and provide hours of pure enjoyment as you discover the varieties of sea life in all its glorious colors.

The book is enhanced by more 100 maps and diagrams, including seafloor and political maps of all Earth’s seas and oceans.

Dr. Earle’s lively and lyrical narrative is outstanding.

"For seaside dwellers and landlubbers alike, this is a book you will turn to again and again to understand why, as Sylvia Earle says, "Everyone, everywhere is inextricably connected to and utterly dependent upon the existence of the sea." "
