The Sound of The Sea

Just finished reading "The Sound of The Sea - Seashells and the Fate of the Oceans" by Cynthia Barnett, released by Norton.
Cynthia Barnett has written a fascinating account of the history of humanity's obsession with collecting seashells and the impact seashells have had in various cultures in the world throughout history. Barnett also correctly points out the dangers in over harvesting a resource and the impact it has for life in and out of the oceans.
Strongly Recommended.
Four Stars - remember Ms. Barnett, if your going to preach about the harm collecting seashells causes, you shouldn't admit that you collect them yourself.
