| 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 A COAST FOR ALL SEASONS: A NATURALIST'S GUIDE TO THE COAST OF SOUTH CAROLINA, the first in a series of naturalist's guides for the shorelines of the different coastal states in the USA. A guide for the Central Coast of California is in preparation with plans for its release in early 2009. 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. |
