Description: In the search for snakebite antidotes, the ecology and evolution of venomous snakes is of critical importance. This text addresses both the medical aspects of snakebite treatment as well as the highly relevant ecological and evolutionary aspects.
Synopsis: This is the first book to present a multidisciplinary approach to venomous snake research. As well as focusing on the medical aspects of snake venoms and the effects of snakebites, the book examines the evolution and ecology of venomous snakes, which are so crucial in the search for snakebite antidotes. The book has been written to be accessible to an audience of varied scientific backgrounds. Due to the wide range of information, it will be of great interest to scientists and students involved in any aspect of venomous snake research, whilst also appealing to the growing band of amateur enthusiasts.
