"I find this book timely and an important contribution. I certainly would use it as a required text in my Biology of Marine Mammals course."
-BERND WURSIG, Texas A&M University
"...covers most of the topics one might address in a general course on marine mammals...chapters are strong, detailed, coherent, and up to date...a reasonable foundation for a comprehensive text in marine mammalogy."
-BURNEY J. LE BOEUF, University of California, Santa Cruz
"This is a well-researched treatment written in a plain, no-nonsense style that I think is very effective. ...there is nothing like this summary in print. It brings together a prodigious volume of information, when coupled with the extensive bibliography, making this a valuable addition to any natural history library. It could serve as a basis for an interesting course, or source of seminar topics, etc. I think it will have a wide audience."
-RICHARD H. TEDFORD, American Museum of Natural History, New York, New York
"I have looked forward to the fruition of this book from its inception. ...a valuable and timely text for school use, and I can't think of anyone who would be better qualified to produce it."
-CLAYTON E. RAY, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C.
"I admire their willingness to undertake a task as daunting as a summary and synthesis of a rapidly growing field. The scope is broad and inclusive enough to satisfy most users in both undergraduate and graduate courses."
-DARYL P. DOMNING, Howard University, Washington, D.C.
"...all topics that should be covered in a mammal text are discussed here. ...well-written and illustrated...a good summary of cetacean diversity and all or most of the major events in cetacean evolution. ...I am sure that this book will be used in courses on marine mammalogy."
