Verdenshavene dækker to-tredjedele af planeten, men vi ved mindre om store dele af havet, end vi gør om Månen. Oceanernes Atlas er en rejse rundt i verdenshavene, fra de tropiske koralrev til polarområdernes ishave og oceanernes kolde mørke dyb. Man introduceres til de enorme undersøiske bjergkæder, hvor havbunden skabes, dybhavsgrave, vulkanøer, havstrømme og vinde, tsunamier og orkaner og ikke mindst havets fantastiske dyreliv fra plankton til hvaler og mystiske dybhavsfisk. Atlaset indeholder et væld af kort, adskillige illustrative transparenter og en interaktiv CD-ROM med flotte animationer, der bl.a. viser, hvordan tidevand skabes, og hvad der sker, når havene stiger som følge af den globale opvarmning.

To the naturalist John Woodward (c.1665-1728), fossils were 'much neglected, and left wholly to the Care and Treatment of Miners and meer Mechanicks'. He had built up a large personal collection of these samples of the Earth's petrified remains and spent much of his life developing a system for their classification, the results of which were published in this important illustrated work of 1728. A distinguished physician and a fellow of the Royal Society, Woodward wrote extensively on scientific topics, and had developed a theory that fossils were creatures destroyed in the flood described in the Bible. These ideas attracted critics and supporters in equal measure, but his contribution to techniques of fossil collection and classification were influential. In the present work, he devotes the early chapters to questions of description and classification, while the later sections contain some of his letters to his scientific contemporaries, including Isaac Newton.
