Andrew R. Blaustein, Trends in Ecology and Evolution
This fine book helps us to appreciate amphibians more fully and provides vital scientific information that may help us to protect them.... Although amphibians are but one piece of the biodiversity crisis, this book may become a model for those who champion the preservation of threatened species of all kinds.
Kentwood D. Wells, The Quarterly Review of Biology
Conveys the authors' enthusiasm for studying the natural history of a fascinating group of animals. The illustrations are superb [and the] line drawings are a delight.... A major contribution.
