This superb collection of photographs brings their story vividly to life.Starting with a look at fish fossils and anatomy in detail the book describes their evolution and different patterns of behaviour. Discover how a stickleback builds a nest and how a flatfish's eyes move over to one side of its face as it develops. Learn about fish parenting feeding migration and different means of defence. There is also a dazzling head-to-tail feature on a vicious sharp-toothed shark.Produced in association with the Natural History Museum Fish is a unique and compelling introduction to the lives of these fascinating and mysterious animals.
