Description
Seven-Tenths, the Sea and its Thresholds
James Hamilton-Paterson
Seven Tenths is an meditation on the sea as the physical birthplace of the human race and the emotional source of our dreams. Shifting effortlessly between the sciences and the humanities, between cartography and poetry, between ecology and philosophy, the author created an engrossing work about the sea.
