At once feared and revered, sharks have captivated people since our earliest human
encounters. Children and adults alike stand awed before aquarium shark tanks, fascinated
by the giant teeth and unnerving eyes. And no swim in the ocean is undertaken without
a slight shiver of anxiety about the very real--and very cinematic--dangers of shark
bites. But our interactions with sharks are not entirely one-sided: the threats we
pose to sharks through fisheries, organized hunts, and gill nets on coastlines are
more deadly and far-reaching than any bite. In Sharks and People, acclaimed wildlife
photographer Thomas Peschak presents stunning photographs that capture the relationship
between people and sharks around the globe
