This book is a 'must have' for herpetology-oriented biologists and
serious amateurs. It is an indispensable teaching tool and a
valuable reference. Since the publication of the first edition,
every student who has taken my herpetology course has been required
to have a copy and every student with whom I have spoken since has
kept their copies after the class was over." - Arthur C. "Sandy"
Echternacht, University of Tennessee, Knoxville
"This comprehensive key to the native and introduced species of
amphibians and nonavian reptiles, with its excellent artwork and
insightful synopses of the many taxonomic controversies, will be of
considerable interest to amateur and professional herpetologists
and many natural history organizations." - Brian T. Miller, Middle
Tennessee State University
