The authoritative expert's guide to fascinating frogfishes and their unusual lives. Winner of the PROSE Award for Best Single Volume Reference in Science by the Association of American Publishers Unique among the world's fishes, frogfishes display a bizarre combination of attributes and behaviors that make them a subject of fervent study. Through cunning and trickery, they turn would-be predators into prey; they "walk" across the ocean floor and jet-propel through open water; some lay their eggs in a floating mucoid mass, while others employ complex patterns of parental care; and they are certainly among the most colorful of nature's productions. In Frogfishes, two of the world's leading anglerfish experts, Theodore W. Pietsch and Rachel J. Arnold, bring together an enormous amount of information about these incredible creatures. The only detailed exploration of frogfishes in print, the book touches on everything from their morphology and biomechanics to their diets and habitats. Enhanced with more than 500 spectacular color images, the book also includes • a thorough look at about 5,000 preserved specimens; • an annotated synonymy for all extant taxa, as well as keys and tables to facilitate identification; • insights into frogfish feeding, locomotion, mimicry, and reproductive behavior; • descriptions of recent scientific advances, including the discovery of new species, shifts in geographic distribution, and emerging DNA sequencing techniques; and • tips for frogfish-seeking divers and aquarists that emphasize conservation. Unmasking the mysteries of frogfish evolution and phylogenetic relationships through close examination of their fossil record, morphology, and molecular reconstruction, Frogfishes demonstrates the surprising diversity and beauty of this remarkable assemblage of marine shorefishes.
“A huge, beautiful compendium of 600 frogs from around the world, from the famed poison-arrow variety on up to the intriguingly named plaintive rain frog.” —Wired With over 7,000 known species, frogs display a stunning array of forms and behaviors. A single gram of the toxin produced by the skin of the Golden Poison Frog can kill 100,000 people. Male Darwin’s Frogs carry their tadpoles in their vocal sacs for sixty days before coughing them out into the world. The Wood Frogs of North America freeze every winter, reanimating in the spring from the glucose and urea that prevent cell collapse. The Book of Frogs commemorates the diversity and magnificence of all of these creatures, and many more. Six hundred of nature’s most fascinating frog species are displayed, with each entry including a distribution map, sketches of the frogs, species identification, natural history, and conservation status. Life-size color photos show the frogs at their actual size—including the colossal seven-pound Goliath Frog. Accessibly written by expert Tim Halliday and containing the most up-to-date information, The Book of Frogs will captivate both veteran researchers and amateur herpetologists. As frogs increasingly make headlines for their troubling worldwide decline, the importance of these fascinating creatures to their ecosystems remains underappreciated. The Book of Frogs brings readers face to face with six hundred astonishingly unique and irreplaceable species that display a diverse array of adaptations to habitats that are under threat of destruction throughout the world. “If you are a serious (and I mean serious) fan of the frog, you are in for a real treat.” —Boing Boing

Did you know that even a newborn baby gains lifelong benefit from story time? Neuro-educational studies have found that the brain is most impressionable to the nuances of languages during the first three years of life, and that the ritual of storytelling enhances problem-solving, decision-making, and even an understanding of abstract ideas. In fact, reading to your young children is more than a shared pleasure; it's an essential routine that is best introduced long before your children express an interest. Now, education specialist Jennise Conley, founder of the Energy and Sciences Education Initiative, presents an indispensable, early-development resource in the form of her whimsical, charming children's book, A Fish, a Frog, and a Gnome: My Favorite Poems. Through three easy-to-read, playful rhymes and vibrant illustrations, this book is certain to help engage children and students in a lifelong joy of reading while helping to sharpen their cognitive abilities and tap into the power of their young imaginations. Presented in large, clean letters with eye-catching, colorful pictures, the three delightful, whimsical rhymes featured in this book will help start an early ritual of reading that is both fun and reader friendly, while at the same time enhancing cognitive development. Themed around three wishes, the rhymes introduce children to this abstract notion through clear, comprehensible stories. "The First Wish" features a young child who wishes to catch a fish, and instead finds something very different. "The Second Wish" spotlights a bespectacled frog, who wishes that he was a dog with surprising, silly results. "The Third Wish" finds a gnome at home, grumpily sleeping on a piece of foam. In addition, the book features a letter to parents to help them make the most of story time. From instructions on the best practices for reading to newborns to the importance of repetition in the human brain, this instructional letter will enable any parent to make the most out of reading to lend comfort, facilitate the processing of information, and make story time a perennially fun experience for your child. By portraying books as a treasure trove of exciting mysteries and new ideas to discover, you'll share with your children a magical world that will become a natural, and deeply meaningful, part of your child's life.
