Publisher's Synopsis

Antarctica, a land of mystery and wonders, is the Earth's last great wilderness. Fifty million years back, it had evergreen forests with many types of animals and plants. Today, the continent is a white desert and known to be the coldest, driest, stormiest, windiest and the most inaccessible place in the world. India's journey to this remote, isolated and extreme continent began in search of knowledge and for unravelling its mystery. This book is about a journey, a mission, an initiative, a challenge, an adventure, a dream and finally establishing the scientific capability of India in the world.
