This comprehensive atlas comprising over 300 beautiful colour photographs of marine
animals dangerous to humans has been written by three experts in the fields of hazardous and
venomous animals, marine biology, emergency medicine and education.
It will be of considerable practical use not only to marine biologists, oceanographers,
marine scientists and toxicologists but also to accident and emergency trauma specialists who
are treating an alarming number of casualties among divers and others involved in maritime
occupations and leisure pursuits.
One of the world's leading biotoxicologists has joined forces with an eminent
environmental physician and a youth science specialist to produce a unique and beautiful book.
It will not only be of immense practical value, but, by its powerful and exciting photography,
it will also enthral anyone intrigued by the sea.
