{"product_id":"sea-stars-of-british-columbia-philip-lambert-9780774808255","title":"Sea Stars of British Columbia, Southeast Alaska and Puget Sound","description":"In this handbook, Philip Lambert describes 43 species and subspecies of sea stars in the coastal waters of northwestern North America. The sea-star fauna of the region from Glacier Bay, Alaska, to Puget Sound in Washington, is the most diverse of all the temperate waters of the world. The great age of the Pacific Basin, and the varied habitats along this complex coastline, created by scouring glaciers and other natural forces, have stimulated the evolution of many new forms. Sea Stars bridges the gap between academic and popular publications and is enhanced by illustrations and photographs, many in colour. Although he covers the coastal waters down to 200 metres below the surface, Lambert lists 26 more species that live below 200 metres and 14 others that occur just outside the region covered by this book. \"If sea stars fascinate you (and they're pretty hard to resist on this coast) then you'll appreciate this book. It is essential for anyone doing research involving northwest sea stars and is also a great field guide for divers and seaside naturalists.\" - Echinoderm Newsletter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Philip Lambert\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 077480825X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780774808255\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Royal British Columbia Museum\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.52w x 0.52d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eScitech Book News\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2001 pg. 67","brand":"Philip Lambert","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48443677081855,"sku":"9780774808255","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_811b09c4-d678-4157-850f-a30c16e692aa.jpg?v=1777207071","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sea-stars-of-british-columbia-philip-lambert-9780774808255","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
