Another one for the coast watcher has to be From Cape Cod to the Bay of Fundy: An Environmental Atlas of the Gulf of Maine by Philip Conkling (MIT Press, 拢42.50/$50, ISBN 0 262 03227 9). Using satellite images and aerial photographs, the book explores this rich environment from the thin 鈥渂eauty strips鈥�, stands of trees that camouflage industrial plantings, to the physical mechanisms that created and keep the unique character of this region. A clear explanation of how the data were obtained and what they mean is a bonus.
