Reviews

[Parks]

This book is rather comprehensive. Certainly recommended for anyone interested in a good introduction to the anatomy, physiology, and behavior of many types of bats. Includes lots of photographs!

[Charlie]

Interesting book, but it's an unwieldy mix of coffee table and text book. The pictures and graphics are amazing, and the information detailed. But the large format makes it a challenge to hold and read.
