The book demonstrates the fluidity of cryptozoology as well as how it can be a very analytical practice. Fictional entries are there for education as well as entertainment. One eye-opening piece deals with how cryptofiction is written. The book brings together a diverse array of views - not all necessarily complimentary - into the world that is cryptozoology.
More information about the book's history and its editor, Craig Heinselman, can be found in my earlier article on Elementum Bestia.
