A little about a lot
If you like to learn a little about several subjects, you will like this book. In telling the sotyr of a shipment of bath toys that go overboard, it covers containers and container ships, ocean currents and driftology, ocean pollution, research vessels and ice breakers, the chemistry of plastics, and Chinese toy factories. I could have used a little less information about some topics, but overall it held my interest. Maps and photos would have been useful.
