  • The visually arresting and often misunderstood octopus has long captured popular imagination. With an alien appearance and an uncanny intellect, this exceptional sea creature has inspired fear in famous lore and legends—from the giant octopus attack in 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea to Ursula the sea witch in The Little Mermaid. Yet its true nature is more wondrous still. After decades of research, the authors reveal a sensitive, curious, and playful animal with remarkable intelligence, an ability to defend itself with camouflage and jet propulsion, an intricate nervous system, and advanced problem-solving abilities. In this beautifully photographed book, three leading marine biologists bring readers face to face with these amazingly complex animals that have fascinated scientists for decades. From the molluscan ancestry of today’s octopus to its ingenious anatomy, amazing mating and predatory behaviors, and other-worldly relatives, the authors take readers through the astounding life cycle, uncovering the details of distinctive octopus personalities. With personal narratives, underwater research, stunning closeup photography, and thoughtful guidance for keeping octopuses in captivity, Octopus is the first comprehensive natural history of this smart denizen of the sea.

In this collection of reviews, most customers seem to have a positive experience with the book "Cephalopods: Octopuses and Their Relatives." One reader mentions that it is a fascinating treatise on their favorite eight-legged sea creatures and that it was very well written, even reading it in one sitting. Another reviewer, who has collected and read multiple volumes on cephalopods, praises the thorough descriptions and research done by the authors, recommending the book to anyone interested in the subject. However, there are some negative points raised as well. A couple of customers express disappointment with the book's condition upon arrival, mentioning issues like wet pages due to poor packaging and a crumpled dust cover. One reader also notes the lack of illustrations spread throughout the book, which was surprising to them, with most illustrations concentrated in the middle. Overall, it appears that if you are a cephalopod enthusiast, this book may be a valuable addition to your collection due to its comprehensive content and engaging writing style. However, potential buyers should be aware of potential packaging issues and the book's layout with regards to illustrations. **
