The second edition of "The Diversity of Fishes" represents a major
revision of the world's most widely adopted ichthyology textbook.
Expanded and updated, the second edition is illustrated throughout
with striking color photographs depicting the spectacular
evolutionary adaptations of the most ecologically and taxonomically
diverse vertebrate group. The text incorporates the latest advances
in the biology of fishes, covering taxonomy, anatomy, physiology,
biogeography, ecology, and behavior. A new chapter on genetics and
molecular ecology of fishes has been added, and conservation is
emphasized throughout. Hundreds of new and redrawn illustrations
augment readable text, and every chapter has been revised to
reflect the discoveries and greater understanding achieved during
the past decade. Written by a team of internationally-recognized
authorities, the first edition of "The Diversity of Fishes" was
received with enthusiasm and praise, and incorporated into
ichthyology and fish biology classes around the globe, at both
undergraduate and postgraduate levels. The second edition is a
substantial update of an already classic reference and text.
