  Welcome to the world of Informania , a new series that treats its subjects with a mixture of sensationalism, humour and hard fact. This first title is packed to the gills with the latest news and views on the ocean's oldest and meanest predators - sharks. The book is presented in four chapters: Section 1 - Shocking Shark Stories , appears as Splash! magazine with articles, a comic-strip and some gory tales of shark attacks; Section 2 - Confidential Crime Files , are the secret reports of the FBI (the Fish Bureau of Investigation), giving a detailed identification lowdown on the biggest, baddest, ugliest sharks in the ocean; Section 3 - Database: Shark Profile , takes a computer graphic approach, inviting readers to log on to discover about shark anatomy; and Section 4 - Biology Notes: Reproduction is presented in the form of a pupil's spring term school project and makes for surprising reading.
