Science Books and Films
"Professional naturalists will find [these volumes] invaluable as a
handy reference, and amateurs -- at least those citizens alive to
their earthly environment -- should delight in finding so much
fascinating information made so available and palatable." --
Audubon
"Speaking as a reader who is mildly addicted to 'standard works of
reference, ' I must say that I find it a very welcome addition to
my library, and suspect that it will become my regular first port
of call when trying to answer any mammalogical question." --
International Zoo News
"Unlike many academic reference works, all editions [Walker's
Mammals], the new one included, are as accessible to amateurs as to
professionals.... For wildlife enthusiasts, this set is an
indispensable resource. After being exposed to this kind of
thorough, detailed information saturation, many readers may find it
hard to go back to a plain old encyclopedia for their animal
questions." -- Bloomsbury Review
"Walker has made available a mine of information, for the
specialist as well as for the casually interested." -- New York
Times
