Dive down if you dare and discover the world's strangest, scariest and most magnificent sea creatures in this breathtaking gift book from the University of Cambridge and Nosy Crow!

"Ralphs' exciting prose style, combined with great facts and images that really glow, makes for a view of the ocean that you'll be glad you can't see from a sun lounger this holiday" - The Guardian.
