Tides: The Science & Spirit of the Ocean

Explore the mysteries of the tides with local author Jonathan White. This wonderful book is, as the Oregonian puts it, "a grand mix of science history, ocean lore, and travel writing." White takes you around the world in search of tidal phenomena, tracks humanity's efforts to understand the tides through the ages, and explains how the tides work without diminishing the awe and wonder they inspire. We highly recommend it.
