From time to time, books are published that are relevant to sharks and rays, particularly their fossils. When I come across one of these publications, I'll use my subjective judgement to include them on this site. To my knowledge, items listed below are still in print or at least available. If time permits, I'll attempt to make a few comments about the book.
