OCEAN Earth's Last Wilderness

No one is better than Sir David Attenborough at communicating authentic awe and wonder at discoveries in the natural world. So it's no surprise that this audiobook on ocean ecosystems is an intimate and wildly informative joy ride into the sea. Attenborough, at age 99, reflects on his iconic career, including the horrific declines and astonishing recoveries he's witnessed over decades of immersion in the planet's diverse oceanic ecology. While acknowledging the certainty of climate change, Attenborough and author/narrator Colin Butfield are hopeful when describing the scientists and activists who have helped great swaths of ocean to rapidly recover from human exploitation. Listeners will gain a deeper appreciation for both marine life and the extraordinary body of work so exquisitely described and narrated by Attenborough. J.T.
