Turtles and Tortoises of the World by David Alderton
While reptiles often receive an ambivalent reaction from the public, turtles and tortoises are surely the exception. People have kept them as pets for centuries and their affection for these creatures with attractively colored shells is reflected in art, literature, and popular culture. Noted naturalist David Alderton presents a comprehensive account of these fascinating creatures, featuring recent chelonian research.
David Alderton is a noted writer on the living world. He is active internationally in conservation matters, especially CITES and its work on the protection of the world's threatened species.
