I was very impressed with the section on Heloderm lizards. I am confident the rest of the volume is just as well written, and well worth the $150.00.
Thank you,

Have you seen the price of college textbooks recently? Two years ago I spent $200 dollars on chemistry textbooks alone, and that was for freshmen chemestry. One semester I spent $630 on books. I just purchased Cambell's and Lamar's for $130 on Amazon.com, I plan to try to build a career around herpetology and I figured these books would be very good reference books for the future.
You know what's not smart, paying 60 grand for a Humvee.

Paying $150 for a two volumes as worthy as these is a whole hell of a lot smarter than paying the same for a snake you don't know how to keep alive, yet many people are happy to do the latter. One of my most valuable possessions is my library, not my snake collection. I can go away and not worry about my books dying on me while I'm out there in the wilds finding fascinating herps, and putting them back again.
Why is it some folks won't buy books but they will buy a snake they haven't a hope in hell of keeping alive more than a few weeks ??
And I'm not talking about my books, I haven't written one costing $150 (yet).
