As the threat of global climate change becomes a reality, many look
to the Arctic Ocean to predict coming environmental phenomena.
There, the consequences of Earth's warming trend are most
immediately observable in the multi-year and perennial ice that has
begun to melt, which threatens ice-dependent microorganisms and,
eventually, will disrupt all of Arctic life. In The Arctic: What
Everyone Needs to Know (R), Klaus Dodds and Mark Nuttall offer a
concise introduction to the circumpolar North, focusing on its
peoples, environment, resource development, conservation, and
politics to provide critical information about how changes there
can and will affect our entire globe and all of its inhabitants.
Dodds and Nuttall shed light on how the Arctic's importance has
grown over time, the region's role during the Cold War, indigenous
communities and their history, and the past and future of the
Arctic's governance, among other crucial topics. The Arctic is an
essential primer for those seeking information about one of the
most important regions in the world today.
