IN THE NAME OF SHARKS - FRANÇOIS SARANO KARTONI...

Twenty metres below water  the oceanographer François Sarano came face to face with a
five-and-a-half metre great white shark. Seduced by the gentle elegance of this majestic
creature  Sarano experienced a profound sense of affinity with her as they swam side by side 
shoulder to shoulder  eye to eye  cutting a single figure through the ocean depths. It was an
experience which made him realise the depth of our ignorance of the lives of sharks  leading
him to become a passionate advocate for their protection. Drawing on the latest scientific
research on the biology and ethology of sharks and their exceptional characteristics  this book
aims to break through the barrier of prejudice and to pay homage to their true nature.
Representing a last vestige of wildness  their populations are nevertheless under threat - like
so many species  they have been hunted and exploited by humans. Sarano argues for a change of
mindset in which we lose ourselves in the world of the other  so that each living entity  human
and non-human  can take their rightful place in the broader global ecosystem.
