EDITORIAL REVIEWS

Book Description
Now available from Waveland Press, this comprehensive, geographically balanced manual offers readers complete hands-on coverage of morphology, identification, and classification, physiological adaptations, and natural history. The book's taxonomic and geographic coverage is impressively broad as well, applying to a variety of fishes and areas: jawless, cartilaginous, and bony, fresh- and saltwater, temperate and tropical, and inshore and offshore. Helpful discussions and explanations introduce the guidebook's collection of well-designed exercises, making the connections between principles and specific inquiries easier to formulate. This approach works to help readers transform memorized facts into concepts that stimulate further explorations.
