"This is a story of a revolution in knowledge, and of the men who struggled against the winds, the monstrous seas and the searing ice to explore this last continent so that man might know what lies at the bottom of the world. It is also the story of the amazing life of the far south - a bird that circles the world for three years before making landfall; a seal that dies of rotten teeth; a penguin that lays its egg in the darkness of the polar night. Here, too, is the drama of two 'boom-and-bust' industries - the fur seals and the whales. Now a third industry is attracting the attention of the world. Krill. Already the sound of argument is heard . Has man learnt the lessons of the past? Or will the struggle for Antarctica make losers of us all?".
