About this book

Language: Bilingual in English and Italian

This book gives a detailed account of the hammerhead shark. This species is the easiest recognizable shark species. Hammerhead Sharks answers questions such as:"Why is their head shaped like a hammer?" and "Are they dangerous towards people?"

Summary in Italian:
"Questo volume potrebbe intitolarsi Tutto quello che avete bisogno di sapere sui pesci martello, per via della vasta quantità di informazioni che vi è presentata. Le specie della famiglia dei pesci martello sono le più facili da identificare tra tutti gli squali. La prima domanda che qualcuno potrebbe porsi è: 'Perché una tale forma della testa?' La risposta è semplice: poiché ha un eccellente design per la sopravvivenza e tale è stata per milioni di anni. Il libro ne spiega in dettaglio le ragioni. La seconda domanda potrebbe essere 'Sono pericolosi per l’uomo?' La risposta: sì e no. 

Questo libro rappresenta il primo studio in Italia sui pesci martello attraverso i secoli. Le tavole che accompagnano il testo sono frutto dei lunghi studi e ricerche compiute sulla morfologia degli squali martello."
