With more than three hundred photographs in full color, the book is a vivid and informative encyclopedia of seashells in the natural world. The unique combination of photographs and the comprehensive and concise accounts of the different species make this book a valuable reference material. It is undoubtedly a welcome addition to the limited literature available in the field of seashell taxonomy and ecology in the Philippines. It can serve not only as an introductory book for students in marine biology, fisheries, aquatic fauna, or related areas but also as a guide for researchers working on different marine habitats of the Philippine coastal areas.

Mollusks have been important to humans since our earliest days. Initially, when humans were primarily interested in what they could eat or use, mollusks were important as food, ornaments, and materials for tools. Over the centuries, as human knowledge branched out and individuals started to study the world around them, mollusks were important subjects for learning how things worked. In this volume, the editors and contributors have brought together a broad range of topics within the field of malacology. It is our expectation that these topics will be of interest and use to amateur and professional malacologists.
