Tides
Author: Jonathan White
Publisher: Trinity University Press
ISBN: 1595348069
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
In Tides: The Science and Spirit of the Ocean, writer, sailor, and surfer Jonathan White takes readers across the globe to discover the science and spirit of ocean tides. In the Arctic, White shimmies under the ice with an Inuit elder to hunt for mussels in the dark cavities left behind at low tide; in China, he races the Silver Dragon, a twenty-five-foot tidal bore that crashes eighty miles up the Qiantang River; in France, he interviews the monks that live in the tide-wrapped monastery of Mont Saint-Michel; in Chile and Scotland, he investigates the growth of tidal power generation; and in Panama and Venice, he delves into how the threat of sea level rise is changing human culture—the very old and very new. Tides combines lyrical prose, colorful adventure travel, and provocative scientific inquiry into the elemental, mysterious paradox that keeps our planet’s waters in constant motion. Photographs, scientific figures, line drawings, and sixteen color photos dramatically illustrate this engaging, expert tour of the tides.

Musings of a Dignified Prisoner is a collection of the authors' (a former correctional inmate) deepest ponderings of our Creator.

For twenty-three hours and only one hour out of his cell for forty-five days, the author faced one major question: "Why?"

The author's hope is that you will be exalted by the hand of God by reading this humbling experience shared.
