Presents the morphology, physiology, and behavior of both freshwater and marine turtles. It explores life histories along with ecological strategies of adaptation, examines current debates in evolution concerning the relationship between organism features and life history, and considers what turtle structures can and cannot reveal about growth, ecology, and behavior.

With 200 illustrations, including 8 full color pages, this text is an ideal reference for herpetologists, as well as evolutionary and conservation biologists.
