Since it» first publication the Larousse Encyclopedia of Animal Life has sold over a quarter of a million copies and has become one of the most respected and successful books on the animal kingdom. This success is due to the unique combination of a comprehensive and authoritative text to the entire living world coupled with a superb range of photographs covering everything from minute single-celled creatures to the larger mammals, and all within the single volume. This new edition continues this high standard and brings together some of the best colour animal photography in the world and an up-dated and revised text.
The original text was broadly based on La Vie des Animaux by the late Professor Léon Bertin of the Musée National d'Histoire Naturelle, Paris, with extensive contributions to the English language edition by Maurice Burton, J.A.L. Cooke, F.E.G. Cox, R. Phillips Dales, R.G. Davies, Benjamin Dawes, J.F.D. Frazer, Shirley Hawkins, J.W.Jones and C.M. Yonge. This edition has been completed under the guidance of Maurice Burton and brings the text in line with recent discoveries and new thinking on the classification of certain groups. Every major animal group is dealt with and introductory sections to each zoological class outline general principles of anatomy, breeding behaviour, migrations, evolutionary development and other topics. At familial level there is detailed data on representative species describing such topics as their size, colour and distribution. There is also a complete classification table and glossary of terms as well as a full index.
The depth of detail and the international approach is reflected in the selection of the 800 colour photographs which illustrate creatures fi-om every continent, demonstrating the incredible diversity of the animal kingdom. The quality of the photographs is such that the book as well as being a useful reference source is also a beautiful book to look at, delightfully portraying the elegance and splendour of animals fi-om brightly coloured insects to regal-looking lions. The emphasis in the text and the photographs is always on animals in the wild state and wherever possible the species are shown in their natural environment. The result of this careful blend of concise yet enthusiastic text and superb photography is an animal book which is both a useful guide to the naturalist and student and also a delight to the interested layman.
