'Man and Birds should be required reading for those who plan our environment, and it will incidentally add a new dimension to the conventional bird-lover's knowledge of his subject.'
New Scientist
'Man and Birds is much more than a text-book of economic ornithology. It is a book for all serious naturalists and game-preservers who delight to have their knowledge of wildlife firmly based upon sound learning.'
Field
'A book embracing economic ornithology in its widest sense, the author makes a well-reasoned stand against both thoughtless conservation and unscientific pest control.'
The Times Educational Supplement
