Judges report

Tony Koslow, a deep sea ecologist, wonderfully chronicles the exploration of the deep sea and provides the reader with a current and remarkable view of arguably the last frontier on planet Earth. Beautifully illustrated with early scientific drawings and stunning colour photographs, Koslow’s clear writing brings the reader close to bizarre worlds, their incredible biodiversity and the impact that humans are having on them.
