Reader ReviewsMany years ago I bought the first edition of this book for the Australian National University Scuba Club. It has survived many, many trips to the Great Barrier Reef on club trips, where it has served as our primary reference for fish identification. The photographs are excellent, and the inclusion of the juvenile forms of many fish is a great asset. Now rebound after years of exacting use by hundreds of keen divers, stormy trips on the high seas, and trans-shipment in small boats to our destination island, the club is still taking its copy of this book along on its annual two week long GBR trips. So, with a history of use such as that, I was excited to find that there was a new edition with additional material! I had to get this for myself, and quite simply - it's got everything that made it such a great book before, plus now there is more. Well done! I recommend this book (and edition) highly to all of my scuba students, and can also do so here.
