Title: Great book on biology and cultural importance of sharks in Hawaiian waters...
Review: Sharks of Hawaii: Their Biology and Cultural Significance, by Leighton R. Taylor, is a great book on Hawaii's sharks. The book includes information on individual species of sharks (with line drawings and photographs), information on the relationship between Hawaiians and sharks (including the concept of 'aumakua, and fishing techniques), modern conservation concerns, and a good summary of shark biology.The book also has a detailed listing of the Hawaii shark attack file maintained by NOAA scientist George Balazs."Pau pele, pau mano." Tell the truth or be subjected to the perils of volcanos and sharks.
