There's so much we don't know about what lies deep beneath the ocean's surface - and the time to find out is growing increasingly precious . . . From one of the world's leading experts in marine biology and oceanology comes THE DEEP

'[An] authoritative, hands-on study ... Rogers mixes wonder with wake-up calls about overfishing, pollution, invasive species and climate change, along with proposals for protection' Nature

There's so much we don't know about the life that flourishes deep beneath the surface of our oceans, and the time to find out is growing increasingly precious...

Professor Alex Rogers has spent the past 30 years studying life in the deep ocean. In The Deep, he takes us on an epic and unforgettable voyage to an alien world, introducing us to glittering coral gardens, submarine mountains and a range of bizarre and breathtaking sea creatures. In doing so, Rogers not only illustrates the ocean's enormous and untold impact on our lives, but also shows how we are damaging it catastrophically through pollution, overfishing and the insidious effects of climate change.

Urgent and galvanising, The Deep is a magisterial study of a world we are only just beginning to understand - and a profoundly hopeful call to arms for us to reshape our relationship with it, before it is too late.

There's so much we don't know about what lies deep beneath the ocean's surface - and the time to find out is growing increasingly precious . . .

Professor Alex Rogers is one of the world's leading experts in marine biology and oceanology, and has spent his life studying the deep ocean - and in particular the impact of human activity on the ecosystems of the oceans.

In this timely, galvanising and fascinating book - replete with stunning photography of strange and beautiful creatures - Professor Rogers offers a fundamentally optimistic view of humanity's relationship with the oceans - and also a very personal account of his own interaction with the seas.
