On el dia dorm amb els ulls oberts

'On el dia dorm amb els ulls oberts' is a reconstruction of the journey of  young scientific journalist Toni Pou to the Canadian Arctic. Embarking on the Amundsen, he took part in the research carried out on board the boat which was equipped with state of the art scientific equipment. A cross between a travel book, a scientific article and a personal chronicle, the book tells of the daily lives of the people on board, and their routine in a very unusual environment. In a fresh and simple tale full of charming anecdotes, Toni Pou describes not only the characteristics of the Arctic, but of  science in general. Intelligent, sensitive and very well written, 'On el dia dorm amb els ulls oberts' is a jewel which transports us to a distant world, evoking the adventures and the epic quality of 19th century Polar expeditions.
