Never look a polar bear in the eye: a family field trip to the Arctic's edge in search of adventure, truth, and mini-marshmallows

Zac Unger takes readers on a spirited and often wildly funny journey to a place as unique as it is remote, a place where natives, tourists, scientists, conservationists, and the most ferocious predators on the planet converge. In the process he becomes embroiled in the controversy surrounding polar bear scienceand finds out that some of what weve been led to believe about the bears imminent extinction may not be quite the case. But mostly what he learns is about human behavior in extreme situations. . .and also why you should never even think of looking a polar bear in the eye.
