Scientists/Authors Tim Shank and Dan Fornari who will present their new 
book “Discovering the Deep” on Friday, July 10, at noon in Redfield 
Auditorium, 45 Water St., Woods Hole.The deep oceans and global seafloor 
are truly Earth's last frontier. They remain largely unexplored, yet are 
critical to our survival on this planet. This magnificent, full-color 
volume transports you to bizarre landscapes hosting exotic life forms 
that rival the most imaginative science fiction. Starting with a 
historical summary of seafloor exploration and the developing 
technologies used to study this extreme environment, it then describes 
the distinctive geologic components of the Earth's ocean floor and the 
unusual biological communities found along the mid-ocean ridges. This is 
an indispensable reference for researchers, teachers, and students of 
marine science, and a visually stunning resource that will enlighten and 
intrigue oceanographers and enthusiasts alike. A suite of online 
resources, including photographs and video clips, combine with the book 
to provide fascinating insights into the hidden world of seafloor 
geology and biology using the latest deep-sea imaging and geological 
concepts. Books will be for sale after the talk. Sponsored by the WHOI 
Information Office. Coffee, tea, and cookies served. Donations accepted.
