商品描述: This is a book for those who want to understand better how the waters surrounding us affect our daily lives, how it imperceptibly but crucially shapes our actions, and has shaped our landscape for millenia. It's for anyone who knows and loves our coast, and who wants to understand, discover, surf, or sail it better.Inspired by his own witnessing of the power of the sea through travelling around Britain's coastline in a panel van with his young family, William Thomson tells the story of the cycles of the sea. He combines a lyrical, passionate narrative with graphically beautiful renderings of the main forms of water which affect Britain: Rip, Rapids, Swell, Stream, Tide, Wave, Whirlpool, Tsunami.The Book of Tides is a book for all of us who feel the pull of the sea and the tug of the tide.这本书是为那些想更好地了解我们周围的水是如何影响我们的日常生活的人准备的,它是如何在不知不觉中但至关重要地影响我们的行为的,并塑造了我们千年的景观。它是为任何了解和热爱我们海岸的人准备的,他们想更好地了解、发现、冲浪或航行。威廉·汤姆森告诉了海洋循环的故事,他的灵感来自于他和年轻的家人乘坐平板车环游英国海岸线,亲眼目睹了海洋的力量。他将抒情、激情的叙事与影响英国的主要水流形式的优美渲染相结合:激流、急流、涌浪、溪流、潮汐、波浪、漩涡、海啸。《潮汐之书》是一本写给我们所有感受到大海的牵引和潮汐的人的书
