Abstract: "In the tradition of Jane Goodall and Ernest Shackleton, biologist Terrie Williams and seven of her fellow scientists embark on an Antarctic expedition to study one of the world's most mysterious creatures, the Weddell seal." "These are the field notes of an adventurous scientist who travels to the ends of the earth with a dedicated team of explorers to follow the Weddell seal as it plunges to the depths below Antarctica. It is the story of nature and high tech science on ice in the face of whiteout blizzards, persistent frostbite, and bone-chilling temperatures."
