Bird Navigation: The Solution of a Mystery
Seller: Rhos Point Books, Conwy, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback in Very Good condition. 256 pages with many illustrations and figures in the text. Not Inscribed. How do birds navigate so successfully over thousands of kilometres, making a return trip which may take them to the same nesting site every year? Some leading researchers are beginning to think that this most enduring and endearing of puzzles has been solved and the author, a well known figure in the navigation field, explores this view in the light of recent discoveries. This book is written primarily for the serious student of biology but the manner of presentation, with a strong visual edge, puts it within reach of a wider readership of those interested in birds, navigation or migration.
