Description: "No two species of shark have the same life history, yet these magnificent creatures share many things in common. This one-of-a-kind narrative biography brings together a wide array of species from habitats around the globe, examining the biology, ecology, and behavior of sharks as well as their cultural role in human history. Written by two experienced shark educators, scientists, and conservationists, Shark: The Illustrated Biography blends engaging profiles of selected species with captivating illustrations to offer an unparalleled exploration of the life and times of the shark."--

Review Quotes: "Accessibly written, lovingly illustrated, and shorn of sensationalism, it makes for a great first book on shark biology for non-biologists."---Leon Vlieger, The Inquisitive Biologist
