Explore Antarctica

Synopsis

Explore Antarctica encourages students to understand the management of the Antarctic environment and issues of global importance linked to the Antarctic. It provides a comprehensive guide to the natural environment of the continent, as well as its history and its future.

The author, Dr Louise Crossley, has worked in the Antarctic as an expedition and research station leader, and the book has been approved by the Australian Antarctic Division. The project has been developed by the Australian Surveying and Land Information Group (AUSLIG) of the Commonwealth Government of Australia, and funded by the Australian Antarctic Foundation.

Media Reviews
This is not only a handy reference to the fifth-largest continent but also a pleasure to read. Jammed with facts and copiously illustrated....This book will be a welcome addition to the reference collection and enjoyable for any reader, not only for the text but also for the maps and photos. Kliatt
