Absolutely complete!

Although I have not yet read the latest version of a Natural History of Sharks, the first edition of this book totally blew me away. It is an excellent blend of astonishing anecdotes (brushes with whale sharks, the contents of a tiger sharks stomach - you'd be surprised!) and depth of detail. Every major shark family is detailed by these two experts. I have not been able to find a more complete shark reference, and I hope this current publishing is the same.
