Song for the blue ocean encounters along the world's coasts and beneath the seas

"Part odyssey, part pilgrimage, Carl Safina's epic personal narrative takes us on a global journey of discovery along the world's coasts, islands, reefs and deep ocean. Exploring the world's changing seas, scientist and fisherman Safina deftly weaves adventure, science, action and political intrigue. We meet people whose lives unfold as a drama of clashing agendas and personal struggles. Safina shows us how over-exploitation of the oceans differs little from the rapacious nineteenth-century plunder that destroyed the buffalo. But he also tells hopeful and inspiring stories of the sea's revival and replenishment"--Publisher's description.
