'Will keep you on the edge of your seat from its first page to its last page' -Jared Diamond, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Guns, Germs, and SteelFrom ancient megalodons to fearsome Great Whites, this book tells the complete, untold story of how sharks emerged as Earth's ultimate survivors, by world-leading paleontologist John Long.

Sharks have been fighting for their lives for 500 million years and today are under dire threat. They are the longest-surviving vertebrate on Earth, outlasting multiple mass extinction events that decimated life on the planet. But how did they thrive for so long? By developing superpower-like abilities that allowed them to ascend to the top of the oceanic food chain.

John Long, who for decades has been on the cutting edge of shark research, weaves a thrilling story of sharks' unparalleled reign. The Secret History of Sharks showcases the global search to discover sharks' largely unknown evolution, led by Long and dozens of other extraordinary scientists. As the tale unfolds, Long introduces an enormous range of astonishing organisms: a thirty-foot-long shark with a deadly saw blade of jagged teeth protruding from its lower jaws and bizarre sharks fossilized while in their mating ritual. With insights into the threats to sharks today, how they contribute to medical advances, and the lessons they can teach us about our own survival, The Secret History of Sharks is a riveting look at scientific discovery with ramifications far beyond the ocean.

'This book is the work of a master scientist and storyteller. It will make you see sharks in a new way: not as blood-thirsty monsters that we should fear, but as nature's ultimate survivors' - Steve Brusatte, New York Times bestselling author of The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs'Readers will want to sink their teeth into this' - Publishers Weekly'Thoroughly researched and wonderfully narrated, The Secret History of Sharks makes a convincing case that the story of sharks is nothing less than the story of life on Earth. Highly recommended!' - Nate Blakeslee, New York Times bestselling author of American Wolf

Us it Every Day
Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 2), Style: SPF 50
This is really a great product and easy to use as a spray. I bike ride every day and my ears/face are exposed to the Florida sun. I use it primarily on my face every day. A moment after a quick spray, the product dries, is not sticky, etc. This will become a recurring purchase.

Good protection from the sun.
Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 2), Style: SPF 50
Does a good job keeping sunburns away. Spray sunscreen never lasts as long as rub-in sunscreen (ie, the bottles run out quicker) so it seems pricier to cover the whole family, but we keep this on hand for days we'll be outside!

SPF ☀️ for Everyday Use 🧴🌸
Color: Tinted, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Color: Tinted, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using this SPF for almost 2 years now and I still love it! The tint adjusts beautifully to my skin tone and gives such a natural, healthy glow without looking heavy or greasy. It applies so smoothly, feels lightweight, and has a very pleasant smell. Most importantly, it doesn’t break me out at all, which is super important for my sensitive skin. I wear it almost every day and it works perfectly under makeup too. The packaging is also super convenient and easy to use, especially for everyday skincare and travel. Definitely one of the best sunscreens I’ve ever tried — worth every penny!

My favorite Sunscreen
Color: Tinted, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Color: Tinted, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using La Roche-Posay Anthelios Ultra-Light Fluid Facial Sunscreen SPF 40 for a few years now, and it’s still one of my favorite daily sunscreens. The formula is truly lightweight and absorbs quickly without feeling greasy or heavy on the skin. It layers well under makeup and doesn’t leave a noticeable white cast, which I really appreciate. I also like that it provides reliable sun protection while still feeling comfortable enough for everyday use. Even after trying other sunscreens over the years, I keep coming back to this one because it works so well for my skin. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a lightweight, non-greasy daily sunscreen.
