Blue Machine: How the Ocean Shapes Our World

I've read quite a few books on a specific species found somewhere in the ocean. This is a really great book for looking at the macro system of the ocean, which short dives into specific topics or species and how they interact with, affect, and are affected by, the whole.Lots of science thrown at you but the author does a really amazing job of describing the science in layman's terms. The number of subject is incredible! Of course, I shouldn't be surprised considering the size and complexity of the ocean. I also like how she intersperses her own career activities amongst it, not always syncing with the chapter topic. I'm incredibly jealous of her travels and world experiences but so happy she chose to share them.
