Summary

Mammals include some of the most intriguing creatures on the planet: the big cats of Africa, the monkeys that inhabit the trees of the Amazon basin, the whales and dolphins that roam the world s oceans。 This book profiles the mammals of the world, using an entry by entry approach。 By including fascinating examples from all of the world s major mammal families, Mammals offers a truly comprehensive overview of mammals from every continent and gives a sense of the incredible diversity of mammal types。 The entries are grouped by order, then within each order by family (and, where necessary, within each family by subfamilies); each family section contains examples of the key species, which are illustrated with beautifully detailed, full-color artworks。 For easy reference, each entry includes a table of information on scientific name, order and family, features, habitats, distribution, diet and breeding。"

Each animal's page has quite a lengthy description of key features and habits, accompanied by a table of data on physical dimensions, habitat, distribution etc。 Admittedly I found quite a few errors here, while there were even duplicate depictions of the same animal, strangely。 However these are but minor imperfections that did not mar my immense enjoyment of the work。 。。。more
