Review

"Henry Stommel has interesting and often original views about life in general and science in particular, some of which shine through in the anecdotes and 'one-liners' that enliven every chapter of what will doubtless and deservedly prove to be a highly successful attempt to explain important aspects of the ocean circulation to a wide audience."--Science

"Suitable for any reader from first-year undergraduate to Nobel laureate."--Choice

From the Back Cover

The distinguished physical oceanographer Henry Stommel provides a lucid account of the ocean's circulation-a subject that has seldom if ever been explained for the many general readers who are interested in the study of the oceans.
