Why Chosen

Antarctica is the least studied continent on Earth because of far distance and limited access. "The Transantarctic Mountains: rocks, ice, meteorites and water" is a fascinating summary of geological studies in Antarctica. Also, it's a tribute to all scientists fascinated by unknown and knowledge, despite of harsh environmental conditions.
