  1. Forbes published a nice new review of my latest book: forbes.com/sites/brucedorminey

    “In a revelatory new book, Sea Level: A History, author Wilko Graf von Hardenberg, […], deftly chronicles just how difficult it was to come up with a standard method of measuring mean sea level. In the process, Hardenberg gives us a richly detailed yet very accessible history of how over five centuries, the concept of measuring mean sea level was a painstaking process that advanced in fits and starts.”
