Knox (U. of Canterbury, New Zealand) synthesizes a large body of research in order to describe what is currently known about the biology of the seas surrounding the Antarctic continent. Twenty-one chapters cover such topics as phytoplankton, sea-ice microbial communities, krill, seals, birds, ice-edge processes, resource exploitation, ultraviolet radiation, and global warming. The second edition has been significantly re-written to incorporate the results of research conducted in the 13 years since the first edition was published. The volume is illustrated with b&w diagrams, graphs, and maps. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
