Product Description

Review

"...Naylor's photographs disclose a world that is intensely colourful not only in the visual sense, but also because of the behaviour of its varied inhabitants." The Independent "...photos...are all excellent...essential reading for anyone who wants a bit more than a name for a sea creature." BBC Wildlife "...highly recommended to all with an interest in our native marine life." British Wildlife "A magical book crammed with colourful photography of marine life round the UK shore." The Teacher "If I were to recommend a single species guide to UK divers, this would be the one." DIVE magazine --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.


British Wildlife, April 2003

"…highly recommended to all with an interest in our native marine life." --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent colourful photos with well written descriptions, 24 May 2003
By John Warlow (Loughborough, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Having dived for the first time in the sea on the Plymouth coast, I wanted to get a book so that I knew what the animals were instead of the usual "It was a big brown fish", or "large crab". I was attracted to this book due to the photographic reputation of Paul Naylor and I can say I wasn't disappointed. The book is broken down by animal group (sponges, worms, fish etc) and is packed with top quality colour photos. Each photo is accompanied by a well written description of the animal and in many cases details unique characteristics of each group, such as how sponges reproduce and how they defend themselves. For other animals Paul Naylor illustrates the animals life cycle, such as developing from eggs to planktonic larval stage to adult etc. I found this book educational and a very enjoyable read, worthy of a space on your bookshelf, if you manage to put it down that is.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book, 26 Jul 2008
This review is from: Great British Marine Animals (Paperback)
Really beautiful book with well written descriptions of the different animals. The pictures are really well done and it's an absorbing read. If you have any interest in underwater life then I would recommend this one fully.

I can't really add to what others have said, It's a good book and the pictures are high quality. However from a Marine Biology undergrad perspective not enough species are covered... Read more

While this book is great for the recreational diver, not by any means are all the brirish species encountered, but most of the bases are covered. Read more
