Multimedia reference library on the undersea world!
The Oceans is a complete CD-ROM Multimedia reference library on the undersea
world. Covering such a vast subject is no easy task, so many different programs
and subjects were considered for inclusion in this suite. The ultimate goal was
to create an all-in-one box set that would satisfy even the most
knowledge-hungry student and Oceanography buff. This is the finest collection
ever assembled on the subject. From whales and dolphins, to the minute world of
the workings of a Tropical Barrier Reef, this CD-ROM collection is unmatched in
