Résumé:Learning marine biology from a textbook is one thing. But take readers to the bottom of the sea in a submarine to discover living fossils or to coral reefs to observe a day in the life of an octopus, and the sea and its splendors come into focus, in brilliant colors and with immediacy.

A marine biologist who has built fish farms in Africa and established a marine laboratory in Jamaica, Kaplan takes us to ocea.
