 This comprehensive survey of geckoes is the only book currently available in English devoted exclusively to these unique and fascinating creatures. Geckoes, a rich and diverse group of reptiles, have successfully adapted to a wide variety of climates and habitats, and seldom present any problems if kept correctly. This beautifully illustrated volume explains the history, evolution, and range of the species, and also provides the information necessary for all aspects of gecko care and breeding -- including housing, heating, lighting, incubation, diet, and the treatment of disease. This book, written by two of Europe's most eminent gecko specialists, will prove an invaluable addition to the library of anyone who deals with geckoes in an amateur or professional capacity.
