an excellent book

It is an excellent educational book with lots of clear and beautiful photos.

Excellent book for anyone studying fishes

This book was extremely helpful to me while I learned all about the fishes at the Aquarium of the Pacific. It is very concise and yet includes every order and family that I ever encountered during my studies. I recommend it wholeheartedly!
