Editorial Reviews
Book Description
A landmark of American scientific literature, this is the first textbook of modern oceanography, originally published in 1855. Maury presents the earliest attempt at formulating a general system of circulation of the atmosphere, with theories that stimulated further research and valuable observations of the temperature of the surface of the sea and of the relief and sediments under its bed. This classic work--written in a highly accessible style--remains ever-vital to undergraduate and graduate students in the history of science, oceanography, and meteorology, as well as to readers interested in the history of science. 1963 ed. 14 figures. 18 tables. 10 black-and-white plates.
