It sounds like a really cool book, but I'd sure like to be able to pick it up and thumb through it before I shell out $85. I haven't been able to find it locally :-/

check out amazon.com from time to time.... I got mine for about 70$,

ok about that flipping through it, I can give you a species profile of your choice to give you an idea of how the book is...

have you seen any of the books that have titals like Atlas of livebearers of the world by T.F.H. publications? those books give detailed information on the fish species covered compairitive to the way Aquarium Plants covers plants

I noticed Kasselmann is a guest speaker at the AGA conference in Dallas. Must be a good book.

there is another cheap book that sorta compares, it is about 15$ US, but it doesn't hold a candle to Kasselman's book. Her book has a much more complete listing of species of plants kept or sometimes kept in aquariums... lets just say that there are some in there you might just have to go collect yourself to have
