Review

A true seaside read designed to save your life. -- Carolanne Griffith Roberts, Florida Living

From the Inside Flap

Here, from the nation's most renowned beach expert, is the first complete guide to beach safety. Stephen P. Leatherman (a.k.a. Dr. Beach) introduces the gamut of beach hazards --- from sharks to rip currents to jellyfish -- revealing which dangers should be of greatest concern and how best to minimize their risks. His scientifically sound advice, interspersed with fascinating facts and anecdotes, makes this book a perfect reference for the millions of travelers and vacationers who visit the ocean shore every year.

Answers to these intriguing questions and more:
-Which U.S. beach records the most shark attacks each year?
-Which species of shark is the most dangerous to people?
-Why are rip currents the most deadly beach threat?
-How can rips be avoided?
-What should you do if caught in a rip?
-Can lightning strikes at the beach be predicted?
-Is a stingray dangerous?
-When is ocean water pollution likely to be worst?
-What types of waves are threatening and how can they be detected?
-What is the danger of a red tide?
-How can swimmers avoid contact with jellyfish?

"From sharks to rip currents, read this book for fun stories, but share it to save lives." (Jean-Michel Cousteau, president, Ocean Futures Society)

"For those of us who love the shore, "Dr. Beach's Survival Guide" is a thoughtful, thorough book to pack with the suntan lotion this summer. The real payoff is his compelling argument that rip currents, not sharks, are the real coastal menace." (Keith Bellows, editor-in-chief, National Geographic Traveler)

"Professor Leatherman's broad knowledge of beach and coastal issues gives him vast credibility. This book is a must-read for every beachgoer!" (Christopher Evans, Surfrider Foundation-U.S.A.)
