Uses the latest sonar data and computer-generated scans to expose a strange world no one has yet seen in person - mountains higher than the Himalayas, valleys deeper than the Grand Canyon, deep-sea currents, coral reefs, and an entire maritime zoo. Detailed maps and text open up this watery world. The author and illustrator explain how ocean basins were formed and take readers on an ocean-by-ocean survey. Shipping, navigation, fishing and underwater archaeology are also covered.
