The fascinating field of reptilian parental behavior is now addressed in this comprehensive survey. More than 1400 references are indexed by specific categories of behavior and nine well-researched
tables organize the literature on useful topics for the species covered. This will prove to be an invaluable resource to herpetologists, herpetoculturists, zoologists, and students of animal behavior. It is
the author's hope that this will stimulate interest in this field of study, which until now, he feels has been much neglected in these taxa. |

"Somma has done a phenomenal job of sifting an enormous literature, done so with a critical eye, and has produced a summary that will be immensely useful to everyone interested in the evolution of
vertebrate life histories."--Harry W. Greene, Professor and Curator, Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, Cornell University |
