Originally published in 1951, The Sea Around Us is one of the most influential books ever written about the natural world. Rachel Carson's ability to combine scientific insight with poetic prose catapulted her book to the top of The New York Times best-seller list, where it remained for more than a year and a half. Ultimately it sold well over a million copies, was translated into 28 languages, inspired an Academy Award-winning documentary, and won both the National Book Award and the John Burroughs Medal. The Sea Around Us remains as fresh today as when it first appeared over six decades ago. Carson's genius for evoking the power and primacy of the world's bodies of water, combining the cosmic and the intimate, remains almost unmatched: the newly formed Earth cooling beneath an endlessly overcast sky; the centuries of nonstop rain that created the oceans; giant squids battling sperm whales hundreds of fathoms below the surface; the power of the tides moving 100 billion tons of water daily in one bay alone; the seismic waves known as tsunamis that periodically remind us of the oceans' overwhelmingly destructive power. The seas sustain human life and imperil it. Today, with the oceans endangered by the dumping of medical waste and ecological disasters such as the Exxon oil spill in Alaska, the gradual death of the Great Barrier Reef, and the melting of the polar ice caps, Carson's book provides a timely reminder of both the fragility and the centrality of the ocean and the life that abounds within it. Anyone who loves the sea, or who is concerned about our natural environment, will want to read, or re-read, this classic work.Binding Type: Paperback

Amazing primer/sunscreen, even for olive skin.
I was a bit hesitant to try this primer because of its yellow color, since I am Anglo-Indian with olive skin (a little darker than Jennifer Lopez). But it says it is for "all skin types" so I tried it anyway. And I am really glad I did. This product blends in really well to the skin to become translucent. It does leave my face a little paler, but what does one expect with zinc and titanium dioxide? The paleness may also be in part because I apply a lot of it, since I use it as my facial sunscreen on most days. What I do is then apply a light dusting of powder to make my skin tone back to normal again.
It is a lovely soft and moussy consistency that spreads easily and evenly on my face. My powder goes on flawlessly over it, which is a far cry from what powder looks like on my face without this primer. The powder doesn't settle into my facial lines either.
All in all, this product is amazing. Don't be put off buy the yellow color. Try it!

This is the best primer for your face, you just need a dot and spread evenly over your face. Sometimes this is all I wear.. it’s light not heavy and natural looking.
