Book excerpt: "Crammed with color photos, Ritter's scientific anthem to the shark explains why fear of the creatures is misplaced, countering scare stories with detailed information about shark biology and behavior. He notes that humans kill an estimated 200 million sharks each year; he pleads for greater understanding and respect for sharks at a time when many species are threatened with extinction. Ritter is scientific director of the Shark Project, based in Germany, and is associated with the Shark Research Institute in Princeton, New Jersey, and the Shark Education and Research Center in the Bahamas." -- Publisher.
