As this book illustrates, marine life comes in all shapes, forms \nand patterns, and some of the creatures out there look as though they \nhave been dreamed up by a sci-fi film director with an over-active \nimagination.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe world’s oceans are home to biodiversity hot-spots that can rival \nanything on land. Divers will be familiar with world-famous attractions \nsuch as swimming with gigantic Whale Sharks in Mexico or the \nPhilippines, or with awe-inspiring Great White Sharks in Australia or \nSouth Africa, but the little critters are equally as engaging, from \noutlandish nudibranchs (or ‘sea slugs’) and tiny cryptic pygmy seahorses\n and the charismatic Coconut Octopus. \nWith stunning close-up images of more than one hundred of the world’s \nmost mind-blowing oceanic species - from corals, seahorses and sea \nanemones to sharks, whales and turtles - this beautifully illustrated \nbook depicts a remarkable underwater world that is hidden from the gaze \nof most humans. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eOceans\u003c\/em\u003e is a glorious memento of a fascinating subject. It is a \nluxurious book that celebrates many astonishing species from around the \nworld and reminds us why we need to protect marine ecosystems more than \never before, making it ideal for nature lovers, as a gift, or as an \ninterior-design feature in any home. ","brand":"New Holland Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51020377424215,"sku":"9781760796853","price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781760796853.jpg?v=1750783253","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/deluxe-oceans-9781760796853","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
