Book Synopsis


Trade Review
"This book should be on every shark-lover’s wish list, whether you are a budding marine biologist or a shark-mad diver. Sharks of the World will inspire you to increase your knowledge about sharks; it will boost your passion and commitment to conserve sharks and their marine habitats; and perhaps, like me, it will encourage you to spend even more time in the water with them to understand them and enjoy them."---Nick and Caroline Robertson-Brown, Scubaverse
"The attention to detail, the thoroughness of coverage, the simplicity and wonder of the illustrations, all add up to a remarkable labour of love. It is an awful irony that, as our knowledge of these wonderful creatures has grown, so has our capacity to destroy them. However, as this book so carefully explains that growth in knowledge is also the means by which we can, hopefully, save them. All those involved in producing such an authoritative compendium should be proud of this impressive contribution to the understanding of sharks and the contribution it will have to their conservation."---Max James, DIVE Magazine
"

[An] excellent reference book, providing everything that shark enthusiasts need to properly identify their favorite fish and new ones that they catch, too. There is a lot to learn, and the 607 ages of this book will
definitely educate you!

"---Tom Berg, The Blade
"This is an outstanding, monumental study of these diverse, intriguing, and captivating fish, enhanced by the standard of the artwork."---Doug Herdson, Marine Biologist
"

A massively impressive work. . . . The essential illustrated guide for the shark enthusiast.

"---Daria Blackwell, Flying Fish
"Stunning and a much-needed resource on these much maligned and beautiful creatures."---Roy Stewart, British Naturalists Association
"While the comprehensive scope of this book will appeal mostly to fishery scientists and conservationists, it indispensable to any shark enthusiast wishing to learn more about sharks and to gain a worldwide perspective on this fascinating and ancient group of fish."---Myles O’Reilly, Glasgow Naturalist
