This reference book gives detailed information on fish. It has been structured so that the individual themes of each spread make up a complete visual story and a self-contained module of information. It is part of the "Eyewitness Guides" series.
Fish are a vast and diverse group of animals ranging in size from tiny minnows to huge sharks all perfectly adapted to living in water and capable of amazing feats of survival. This superb collection of photographs brings their story vividly to life.Starting with a look at fish fossils and anatomy in detail the book describes their evolution and different patterns of behaviour. Discover how a stickleback builds a nest and how a flatfish's eyes move over to one side of its face as it develops. Learn about fish parenting feeding migration and different means of defence. There is also a dazzling head-to-tail feature on a vicious sharp-toothed shark.Produced in association with the Natural History Museum Fish is a unique and compelling introduction to the lives of these fascinating and mysterious animals.
