    Amazing perspective on the 7th continent
  

*by H***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 3, 2022*

This book is a must read for anyone interested in Antarctica or traveling to the 7th continent. The facts and figures presented are startling and eye opening.  The details about the different research bases and all the scientific work that is being done there is very interesting. The human stories are intriguing. I was fascinated and am excited to be able to travel to this mysterious place.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Fascinating, Deeply Scientific, Completely Readable and Engrossing
  

*by T***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 25, 2016*

Gabrielle Walker is a scientist who writes like a novelist and the result is a fascinating book about a place that is highly relevant to today's world and what is happening ecologically. Honestly I thought I'd only read the last third which is about the part I'll be visiting. However, as usual I started with the introduction and found I was into the first chapter and didn't want to put it down! I'm reading slowly, taking notes and bookmarking pages: and still haven't gotten to the part I thought would be the only one of interest! I knew Antarctica was an interesting place to go but Walker is enticing me with ideas of how awe inspiring it is. From the theoretical history of how it became frozen and separated into its own land mass to the ecological warning signs for our future and the variety of work being done there it is a book you want to binge read but will force yourself to take it slowly to really internalize every bit.Whether you're going to Antarctica or are just interested in why this spot at the bottom of the world captivates the attention and draws so many people who are not scientists, you will be engrossed in this book. Get it, read it, you'll be so very glad you did.
