Absolutely Fabulous
This book is brilliant and well worth the price at $60. If you are interested in ocean ecosystems(or live on the coast of the gulf of Maine and want to know about your ocean)this book is for you. It makes data beautiful. Editorial review is spot on.

Visually stunning, diverse summary of broad ecosystem
The illustrations, maps and photographs alone make it a worthy coffee table book, but the depth and breadth of scientific information will keep one fascinated for months or more.

A sacred trust
Yes, this book has nothing to do with Italy, but that's how we first came to know Joan O'Neill and her wacky story. Only three things to say: 1. If you are offered this book from a wandering backpacker, DO NOT refuse it. This is a sacred trust (this person will explain what to do). 2. I don't know if the book brings good luck or bad, but we had a terrific time in Rome while in possession of Perfectly Impossible. 3. Respect Guy Macintosh. He's classy, sentimental, wealthy and a lady killer. But do not get on his bad side or he will do awful things to you.

Be wary...

Possibly the Most Important Book in the World
We received our copy of this book in Venice during the summer of 2006 from a friend staying in our hostel.He told us that it had been bestowed upon him by a crazy Frenchman somewhere in Europe.The Frenchman demanded that he pass the book on to someone else as soon as he experienced some unusually good luck.Fortunately, this occured in our presence, and so he passed the book on to us.We continued the chain by passing it on to a couple that we met in Rome after a series of fortunate events. Chances are, if you've ever even heard of this book, it's because some random person gave it to you while you were backpacking across Europe.If this is the case, YOU MUST NOT BREAK THE CHAIN.Sign your name in the book and pass it on when appropriate.You may also want to post an additional review on Amazon.com and clue the rest of us in on the book's current location and condition.And, oh yeah, by the way....the book totally sucks... ...
