Under the editorial guidance of Jeffrey C. Carrier, Ph.D., John A. (Jack) Musick, Ph.D., and Michael R. Heithaus, Ph.D., this book includes much of
the team's original research along with keen insights from their combined nearly 80 years of teaching in higher academia. Dr. Carrier's current
research is focused on the reproductive biology and mating behaviors of nurse sharks in a long-term study from an isolated region of the Florida Keys.
Dr. Musick has published more than 150 scientific papers and co-authored or edited 16 books focused on the ecology and conservation of sharks, other
marine fishes, and sea turtles. Dr. Musick served as co-chair of the IUCN Shark Specialist Group for nine years, and is currently the vice chair for
science. Dr. Heithaus' current work is centered on predator--prey interactions and the factors influencing behavioral decisions, especially of large
marine taxa including marine mammals, sharks and rays, and sea turtles.
