| Pandion Books is a publisher of general-interest scientific and technical books in the fields of eco-tourism, coastal science, and environmental protection (e.g., oil-spill response). Pandion Books is a division of Research Planning, Inc., a science technology company located in Columbia, South Carolina, which, since its founding in 1977, has been involved in coastal research in over 50 countries.
At this time, we are pleased to announce the publication of COASTAL HEROES, by Miles O. Hayes, a prominent coastal geologist. He writes about his experiences over his 50 year career of teaching and working around the world on coastal development and erosion projects.
The third in our series of naturalist's guides for the shorelines of the different coastal states in the USA, the coast of Georgia, is in preparation with plans for its release in the first quarter of 2012. Several other similar texts are also anticipated, including ones for the east coast of Florida and the Maine/New Hampshire coasts.
Pandion Books also has available for sale copies of BLACK TIDES, author Miles O. Hayes' engrossing stories of responding to most of the recent, headline-grabbing oil spills, notably the EXXON VALDEZ, the AMOCO CADIZ spill in France, and the IXTOC I blowout in the Gulf of Mexico, as well as the Gulf War oil spill in Saudi Arabia, the largest oil spill in history. |
