Review: The definitive book on Amblypygids - This is the definitive work on the Whipspiders (Amblypygids). It has information that interested people can use from beginner to expert. It is very easy to read and filled with useful culture advice that no other publication has. Orin is a life-long arthropod enthusiast and is moderator on several online insect and arachnid forums as well as the editor of Invertebrates Magazine. I have read and used Orin's books for years and each time I get one it changes the way I raise my animals and they respond by becoming healthier. These books also share experiences and habits that I haven't observed myself and gives me things to look for in my animals and to explore with students. The pictures, most in color, electron microscope images, and other graphics, in this book reinforce his points and make it easy to see the body part, structure, behavior or habit he is discussing. This book is a must have for anyone with an interest in these fascinating animals!
Review: Excellent Book - This is an excellent book on the care and husbandry of amblypygids. The book is full of very detailed identification characteristics, care and husbandry for the species discussed and breeding requirements. The book is very well illustrated with high quality illustrations and photos. I would recommend this book to any arachnid keeper or anyone with an interest in arachnids. The book is very well written and the information is conveyed accessible to many different skill levels. This is an essential reference text for anyone in the hobby.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best book on amblypygi.
*by F***E on November 6, 2016*

An incredible source on information for an order of arachnids that is otherwise not well documented outside of scientific research. Detailed information on anatomy, behavior, care, breeding, you name it. The book itself is nicely made. The cover is hardback and their are nice, clear, color images. The pages are fairly lightweight, but not enough to be flimsy. I strongly recommend this for anyone who owns amblypygi, because a great deal of advice online is false or seriously lacking.
