Summary: "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"-- "Combines lyrical prose, colorful adventure travel, and provocative scientific inquiry into tides--that elemental, mysterious paradox that keeps our planet's waters in constant motion.

Summary: Our planet has been shaped by powerful elemental forces, of earth, fire, ice, water, and wind. Over millions of years, they have given rise to natural icons of immense grandeur and variety. Mount Everest, Jordan's Dead Sea, Rotorua's boiling mud pools, Indonesia's archipelago, Sossusvlei's dunes, the Northern Lights, the Rockies, the Amazon, Antarctica, and more. Throughout six episodes, we travel worldwide, exploring. The icons are as different as the forces that created them, from exploding volcanoes to phosphorescent reefs, from snaking rivers to infinite ice sheets, from burning deserts to abyssal fjords. In turn, these natural wonders shape the evolution of all life.

As they chase down Farouk, they encounter unscrupulous individuals who may either be useful allies or dangerous enemies, including Aiden Shaw, an arms dealer who acts solely in his self-interest, and Simon Hardwick, an expert at procuring pilfered artifacts.
