"Rarely has a work of this type garnered as much expectation as Poore and Ahyong’s book has. This is the volume that many of us have been awaiting for a long time. I am happy to say then that the book exceeds all expectations. In retrospect, it really could not have been otherwise, given how scientifically meticulous, enthusiastic and endlessly dedicated both Poore and Ahyong are. Their energy and attention to detail is evident in every page of the book, and it is clearly a labour of love. The scientific value of the book is unquestionable. It will serve not only as a useful tool for current and future carcinologists, but also as a long-lasting compendium of taxonomy in general and decapod crustaceans in particular."
