Title: Author appears to lack first-hand knowledge of snake keeping
Review: The book is written for the bare naked amatuer and seems to be a compilation of info gathered from other books, magazines, and the internet rather than any real first hand knowledge. Further, the sources she cites are, in my opinion, not the best ones she could be using. I would venture a guess that she didn't know anything about snake keeping prior to writing this book. Other info in the book is downright wrong such as when she says that probing a snake (to determine sex) is "not always conclusive"; in fact this is the only conclusive way to sex a snake. In general, I found that the book skipped around on subjects too much and seems to be written more for younger readers.
