|a "Reptiles are closely linked to the mystique of the Galápagos Islands; indeed, the word "galápago" means "tortoise" in Spanish. In A Paradise for Reptiles: Giant Tortoises, Lizards, and Snakes of the Galápagos Islands, Volume 1, Robert H. Rothman presents an accessible, comprehensive account of the legendary giant tortoises and the lesser-known geckos and snakes. The text begins with an overview of the complex geological history of the Galápagos necessary for understanding the course of colonization and evolution in the archipelago. The following chapters on tortoises, geckos, and snakes explore science's early encounters with these unique species, including the route by which each was recognized and named. Rothman draws from a wide range of scientific literature to explore the research on the natural history, behavioral ecology, physiology, genetics, and conservation of each major group of reptiles. A Paradise for Reptiles is richly supplemented with thirty years' worth of photographs taken by the author during annual trips to the Galápagos Islands"--
