MARINS DE NOS VIES
Naviguer sur la mer, c’est voyager à travers la vie. Ni l’une ni l’autre ne sont un long fleuve tranquille. Écueils et tempêtes jalonnent notre existence. Sans cesse, il nous faut échapper aux courants, conjurer les naufrages et continuer à nous ouvrir un chemin. Ce livre inspiré nous appelle à lever l’ancre, à prendre le large, à affronter avec cœur, passion et raison l’inconnu, à vivre pleinement et intensément notre propre périple, à en faire une odyssée jusqu’au port retrouvé de l’amour, de la confiance et du bonheur. Puisant dans la Bible, la littérature, la psychanalyse et sa propre expérience, Christian Buchet, notre grand connaisseur des mers et des océans, nous invite ici à hisser la voile au vent de l’esprit. Un merveilleux guide de sagesse. Membre de l’Académie de Marine, ancien secrétaire général du Comité national du Grenelle de la mer, Christian Buchet dirige le Centre d’études de la mer à l’Institut catholique de Paris ainsi que le programme Océanides. Premier éditorialiste à avoir traité du développement durable sur Europe 1, il est un invité régulier

Ocean
Following the great success of his previous book The Sea, Philip Plisson offers here a new vision of the worlds oceans, with mostly hitherto unpublished photographs that represent the fruits of twenty-five years work. Plisson captures the sea in all its moods and guises in his evocative photographs, twelve in glorious panoramic fold-outs. This book will captivate any reader with a fascination for those vast expanses of blue and an urge to share the photographers adventures and enthusiasm; it evokes dreams of the sea, the sea that enthrals us all.
The Eternal Sea
In the much-anticipated follow-up to his 2002 international triumph "The Sea," photographer Plisson figuratively widens his lens to provide a more global focus on the sea and the humans who depend on it for survival. Includes 200+ new and unpublished images of oceans and more than 50 countries. 12 spectacular gatefolds.
