Plancton — Aux origines du vivant

⚠️ This book is written in French.

Plankton is the collection of creatures that drift with the currents and make up 98% of the biomass of the oceans, while organisms such as fish and mammals account for no more than 2%… We owe it half of the oxygen we breathe, and it is the foundation of the entire ocean food chain. Without plankton… no fish!

In this beautiful book, an ode to the origins and diversity of life, Christian Sardet reveals this secret world in 550 photographs as beautiful as they are strange. He takes us on a dive into the heart of evolution, to the origins of this life that has never stopped diversifying within the oceans for more than 3 billion years.
