A beautifully illustrated exploration of the mysterious world that
lies beneath our oceans and seas From the icy poles to the deepest
parts of the oceans, humans have explored Earth's most challenging
environments, and have even journeyed on into space. But how did
these places form and what are the features that make them unique?
How do humans live and work in these harsh landscapes? Most
importantly, how is human activity impacting them and their natural
inhabitants and wildlife, and what does the future hold for them?
Amazingly, more than 80 per cent of Earth's five great oceans
remain unexplored today. Life at Extremes: Under the Sea journeys
into the mysterious world beneath the waves to discover its unique
features and wildlife, and explores how we can live and work deep
below the sea. Perfect reading for budding explorers aged 9 and up.
