Australia’s venomous snakes are widely viewed as the world’s most deadly and are regarded with cautious curiosity, fascination and, regrettably, fear. Australia’s Dangerous Snakes examines the biology, natural history, venom properties and bite treatment of medically important venomous marine and terrestrial snakes. It contains comprehensive identification profiles for each species, supported by keys and photographs. In addition to their medical importance, the environmental roles of these snakes and the threats that are causing the decline of many of these reptiles are discussed. Drawing on the authors’ experience in the fields of herpetology, toxinology and clinical medicine, this book stimulates respect and admiration and dispels fear of Australia’s fascinating snakes. Australia’s Dangerous Snakes will provide hours of rewarding reading and valuable information for anyone interested in Australia’s unique wildlife and natural history, and will be an essential reference for herpetologists, toxinologists, physicians, zoo personnel and private snake collectors.

Excerpt from Poisonous Snakes of the World: A Manual for Use by the U. S. Amphibious Forces The first edition of the ONI 3-62, Poisonous Snakes of the World, was published on 30 June 1962 under the auspices of the Office of Naval Intelligence of the Office of the Chief of Naval Operations. The widespread interest generated by this publication and the increasing commitments of Navy and Marine forces throughout the world, particularly in Southeast Asia, have served to emphasize the need for a more authoritative manual that can be used for training and in support of military operations. The Bureau of Medicine and Surgery, having recognized this necessity, assumed the responsibility for a more definitive and comprehensive up-to-date presentation of the problems relating to venomous snakes. Commander Granville M. Moore, MSC, USN, was appointed as coordinator and principal editor to work with a committee of eminent herpetologists, selected by the American Society of Ichthyologists and Herpetologists, to revise the manual. The Bureau of Medicine and, Surgery gratefully acknowledges the important contributions made by this committee and the services provided by the New York Zoological Society. First aid procedures in cases of snakebite as described herein are approved by the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery and the specific treatment set forth represents the official policy of this Bureau at the time of publication. This manual is recommended for use by all ships, stations, and commands in need of authoritative information about snakes and snakebites.

The definitive reference guide to all of Africa's venomous snakes, written by two internationally acclaimed herpetologists. Africa is a true hotspot for snake diversity, with several hundred species. Unfortunately, a scared snake or one that is trodden on may bite, and some species have venom that can prove fatal. The Dangerous Snakes of Africa is an indispensable guide to these reptiles. It covers all 137 dangerous snake species in Africa, along with another 70 species that are easily confused with them. All are described, with each account looking in detail at their identification, habitat and distribution, behaviour and venom, as well as how to treat bites and a selection of photographs, accompanied by an accurate range map. Introductory sections cover the major snake groups, their venom characteristics, how to avoid snake bites and first-aid advice. This comprehensive book is an essential tool for all naturalists, conservationists, educators, field workers and medical personnel throughout Africa.
