Book excerpt: Written by distinguished marine biologists and illustrated with incredible underwater photographs, this guide to the marine environment and the dangerous creatures living within it covers all forms of sealife including jellyfish and corals, molluscs, crustacea, urochordates, fish, reptiles, seabirds and sea mammals. Each entry is accompanied by clear succinct text covering habitat, appearance, behaviour, typical accidents and how to prevent and treat injuries. The book opens with a section on oceanography and marine biology which explains the complex and fascinating processes that created the oceans as we know them today. Part 1 covers the invertebrates. As they are a diverse group, typical regional invertebrate habitats are described to give an insight into the complex niches and relationships in which they exist. Part 2 covers the vertebrates. It opens with 48 plates illustrating the majority of species likely to be encountered on the oceans. In the fish plates, some species are illustrated for the first time. The seabirds, cetaceans, sea reptiles and sea mammals are also comprehensively illustrated. The plate section is followed by a systematic section on each group. The book should prove useful to the seafarer, and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the marine environment. Marine life that may be familiar to Australians includes stingrays, sharks, Moray eels, box jellyfish, the blue-ringed octopus, the crown of thorns starfish and the Komodo dragon.

This book was released on 1980 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is unquestionably the most authoritative compact guide to the world of underwater animals that are poisonous, venomous, and electric. Stories concerning dangerous marine organisms are legion. While these hair-raising tales may be useful in holding an audience spell-bound, when a diver at a depth of 100 feet or a swimmer on a home beach suddenly comes upon, or is surrounded by, any of these organisms, he or she is more concerned with fact than fantasy. Dr. Bruce Halstead's book describes and fully illustrates these dangerous marine animals, their noxious effects, treatment of ailments resulting from them and, most importantly, how to avoid them. The illustrations, most of which are in full color, show the animals in their true forms and in their natural habitats.
