About the book >.>.> This book is designed to be enjoyed by-and put to very good use by-anyone in- terested in the cichlids and other fishes of Lake Malawi in the African Rift Valley. It covers all aspects of Malawi cichlids, providing valuable information about their maintenance and breeding as well as descriptions of the fishes themselves and their niches in the lake. And of course this book is fully and beautifully illustrated, con- taining well over 1000 full-color photos mostly of the fishes but with a sprinkling of interesting views of the lake and its people. One of the biggest benefits of this book, and one of the things that sets it apart from most other books about the fishes of Lake Malawi, is that it has an added ring of authenticity because over 90% of the photos have been taken in Lake Malawi itself. This means that the fishes are seen at their true-to-life best, not as pale imitations- and of course it means also that accuracy of identification is preserved. No other author could have brought to this book the completeness and the authority and the practicality that author Ad Konings has invested it with. A qualified ichthy- ologist, licensed SCUBA diver, and outstanding underwater photographer, Ad Kon- ings also raises and sells Malawi cichlids for a living. Both his study of them and his commercial involvement with them are of many years' duration, and no one has more experience with these fishes. (OS)
