The Ocean World

__^ by Vladimir and Nada Kovalik, 191 

 pp., Illus., prmted, 1966, $4.50. Holiday House, Inc., 

 8 West 13th Street, New York, N. Y. 10011. This 



book may be slanted to the young reader or the bud- 

 ding oceanographer but will be stimulating to both 

 young and adult interested in marine science. The 

 old notion of the "seven seas" must be tossed out, 

 according to the authors of this book, in the realiza- 

 tion that there is but one ocean, a global sea in which 

 all waters eventually meet. Putting together the cu- 

 rious facts and ingenious theories concerning this 

 world ocean--a gigantic sheet of water — is the job of 

 oceanography. This book takes the reader beneath 

 the sea to introduce its fascinating animals and 

 plants, the wide-ranging mountains that stand where 

 the ocean's bed was once thought to be flat, the ex- 

 perimental undersea capsules in which man is learn- 

 ing to live and work, the mining of metals and oil 

 from the bottom. The authors describe underwater 

 photography, "cores" of sediment that reveal the 

 earth's ancient history, submarine "farming," sur- 

 prising new ways of detecting and catching fish for 

 the world's exploding food needs, the ingenious new 

 instruments that marine scientists use today, and 

 much more. The authors write simply and without 

 affectation in explaining the teeming life in the sea, 

 including plankton, the various forms of ocean plants, 

 pisces or the bony fish, mammals, and even "sea 

 serpents," notably the Loch Ness monster which a 

 South African scientist says unquestionably exists. 

 In addition to presenting the panorama of an exciting 

 new world beneath the waves and exploring it scien- 

 tifically, this book offers practical helps to young 

 people interested in the many careers open in ocea- 

 nography. Included is a list of colleges and univer- 

 sities offering degrees in marine science, names of 

 oceanographic institutions, and names of private 

 firms engaged in oceanographic research.
