Editorial Review Product Description As mammals ourselves, we have always been fascinated with this most advanced class of animals, and Simon & Schuster's Guide to Mammals describes 426 species worldwide. A long and thoughtful introduction to the evolution, characteristics, and orders of mammals is followed by the entries -- all illustrated in full color -- each containing the mammal's classification, description, and habitat as well as details on behavior, feeding habits, and reproduction. The entries also feature colorful symbols to illustrate habitat, color maps to show the distribution and rarity of each species, and line drawings to indicate unusual or notable physical features. With more than 500 color photographs, Simon & Schuster's Guide to Mammals is a superb and valuable reference. Customer Reviews (3)

Essential for the serious Africa animal lover
this guy rocks so hard
A "Must-Have" For All Wildlife Artists! This makes all of the "East African Mammals"series of books by Jonathan Kingdon an absolute necessity.The text givesa wonderful insight into the natural history as well as the historicalancestry of the majority of East Africa's wild children. But evenmore, it is Mr. Kingdon's exquisite pencil renderings of the individualspecies as well as the structure of their musculature, that make thesebooks so special. These musculature drawings, in turn, are furtherenhanced by deeper dissection-like illustrations revealing the deepermuscle structures responsible for much of the movement and support for themammal in question.These types of drawings are especially fascinating inthis, the Large Mammals volume, wherein the trunk of the elephant and themouth structure of the hippopotamus are visually dissected to provide agreater insight into these structures, and their performance in theanimal. Also covered in this Large Mammals volume, is the Zebra and theGiraffe.Among the extensive coverage, the zebras' anatomy is not onlyprinted, but it is also illustrated in all its' stripe variations, as wellas its' ancestral evolutionary development.Included with the giraffe, weget a look at the muscles, as well as its' coat and how the predator sees -or more correctly - doesn't see its' quarry! The books in this seriesare therefore especially indispensable to the Wildlife Restorer(taxidermist) as a guide to anatomy that we rarely get to see"in-the-flesh" as it were. I can, therefore, wholeheartedlyrecommend this series of books to anyone who cares enough about theirchosen field of art, to pursue all ends to collect as much referencematerial as possible. These books are an excellent addition to thewildlife artists' library. ... Read more |
65. Marine Mammals of the North Atlantic (Princeton Field Guides) by Carl Christian Kinze | |
Paperback: 192
Pages
(2003-02-01)
list price: US$26.95 -- used & new: US$16.87 (price subject to change: see help) Asin: 0691113084 Canada | United Kingdom | Germany | France | Japan | |
Editorial Review Product Description Distribution maps for each species complement the 250 striking color illustrations. The straightforward text emphasizes diagnostic features but also covers the behavior, reproduction, feeding, habitat, and migration of these intrinsically fascinating animals. In the process, the book sorts out marine mammal taxonomy, answering such questions as how dolphins and porpoises differ and whether killer whales are really dolphins or whales. As a guide, this book will be invaluable to boaters, divers, shore dwellers, and all who venture into or on North Atlantic water. It will also interest aquarium visitors and anyone who has ever wanted to see a pod of whales, school of dolphins, or society of porpoises in action. |
