The Ice
by Stephen J. Pyne
All about different kinds of ice in the Arctic! It is informative – a huge book by a scientist and Pyne is drawn into the complexity of ice. Art and science are brought together too as they really are in the polar regions. The book is about how ice is formed but he draws in an artistic vision to complete his picture. It is an apocalyptic book about how much ice there is, or how little, and how important it is for us to have a relationship with it beyond ice-cubes in the ice-tray. It’s not full of pictures
