Polar Regions (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781502674463)

Only a fraction of the world's population has ventured to the planet's poles. Even fewer live in those frigid environments permanently. However, the Arctic and Antarctica return huge rewards to those who brave their relentless cold. From stunning auroras to the incredible wildlife, this volume uncovers the challenges and beauty of life in these extreme environments. Readers learn how scientists study the poles, understand the impact of climate change, and explore the cultures and survival strategies of people who live near these frozen frontiers. Full-color photographs and intriguing sidebars bring Earth's polar regions to life.
