Synopsis

How deep do sharks swim? Have more people been into space then the deep ocean? And what effect are we having on the health of our seas? Ask An Ocean Explorer answers these questions and more!

'Our everyday lives are connected to the deep ocean in ways we seldom realise.'

In this audiobook is everything you need to know about our oceans, explained in 25 questions.

In Ask An Ocean Explorer marine biologist of over 20 years and advisor for the BBC's Blue Planet II, Dr Jon Copley, explains the science and wonder of the deep ocean.

Combining untold history of ocean exploration and personal account of what it's like to be a 'bathynaut' diving in a mini-submarine, Ask An Ocean Explorer will bring to light weird and wonderful deep-sea creatures that we find down there and how the oceans and their health is connected to our everyday lives.

A really good introduction into a subject I’ve loved since I was a kid but never had the brain or heart to explore. Hopefully I can keep it up in between fiction reads.......more
