درباره این کتاب:
The Marine
World is a book for everyone with an
interest in the ocean, from the marine
biologist or student wanting expert
knowledge of a particular group to the
naturalist or diver exploring the seashore
and beyond.
With colour illustrations, line drawings,
more than 1,500 colour photographs, and
with clear accessible text, this book
encompasses all those organisms that live
in, on and around the ocean, bringing
together in a single text everything from
the minuscule to the immense. It includes
sections on all but the most obscure
marine groups, covering invertebrate phyla
from sponges to sea squirts, as well as
plants, fungi, bacteria, fish, reptiles,
mammals and birds. It incorporates
information on identification,
distribution, structure, biology, ecology,
classification and conservation of each
group, addressing the questions of
‘what?’, ‘where?’ and ‘how?’.
Today global warming, overfishing, ocean
acidification and pollution are just a few
of the ever increasing number of threats
and challenges faced by ocean life.
Without knowledge of the animals, plants
and other organisms that live in the
marine world, we cannot hope to support or
implement successful conservation and
management measures, nor truly appreciate
the incredible wealth and variety of
marine life.
The Marine World is the product of
a lifetime spent by Frances Dipper happily
observing and studying marine organisms
the world over. It has been brought to
colourful life by a myriad of enthusiastic
underwater photographers and by Marc
Dando, the renowned natural history
illustrator.
