With a focus on coral reefs, Underwater Eden illuminates the fantastic colors, array of textures, and countless bizarre shapes and forms of undersea life.Beneath the surface of the world’s most exotic seas and oceans—from the Red Sea and the coast of Costa Rica to the Great Barrier Reef and Palau Islands—lie spectacularly diverse ecosystems that only a privileged few have had the opportunity to view up close and in person. Jeffrey Rotman has spent more than thirty years diving in these waters to capture their breathtaking beauty and the stunning richness and variety of the creatures that inhabit them. . The book’s extended captions are written by Rotman and contain scientific facts and trivia interspersed with personal anecdotes and insights gained from decades of observation. Underwater Eden grants readers 365 days of unprecedented access into a strange and captivating world.
He is the author of numerous books on marine life for adults, including Eyes into Secret Seas, as well as eight children's books. His natural history articles appear regularly in prestigious international magazines. Over the years Rotman has developed a singular passion for sharks, which have inspired him to explore nearly all the seas of the world to document sharks of all shapes and sizes, from the colossal whale shark to the diminutive pygmy shark.
