| book description |
Under the water man is no longer predator but prey. Biggest of all fish and the best equipped for hunting, sharks can live in all waters, threatened by no natural predator except the killer whale. Their tenacity for staying alive is impressive, and they have remained relatively unchanged for 350 million years. This book looks at the truth behind sharks - through the examination of case histories - about shark attacks on man. Some of the questions answered include: how many of the 354 shark species are maneaters, how many shark attacks are there a year and how many of them are fatal, how and why sharks attack, how to repel or avoid a shark attack, and 1001 uses of a shark.
