Octavo, laminated boards,480 pp.,illustrations. WAS $50. A comprehensive update on status and conservation needs of herons with emphasis on wetland conservation. This book sets the worldwide agenda for conservation of the herons of the world. It gathers together all the details we know about the populations and distribution of the world's herons and, based on this, what we know about their conservation needs. Nothing quite like this has been attempted before. Each area of the world has been analysed by leading ornithologists who have personal experience carrying out extensive fieldwork in each geographic region. They have evaluated the status of the heron species of their regional fauna and identified the major conservation challenges they face. Specialists in the predominant conservation issues have brought their experiences and a variably complete literature to bear on both identifying challenges and encouraging approaches to conservation of the world's herons.…

Their appeal -- conjuring images of afternoons in homey tearooms or elegant gatherings in grand hotels -- is universal. But a new generation of teapots has stood tradition on its ear. As author Leslie Ferrin says, "Today the teapot has one foot in the kitchen and the other in the art world." "For the artist, making a teapot provides daunting challenges. As the various parts -- body, lid, handle, spout and foot -- are assembled, each creator must solve technical difficulties within the context of design, function and scale. As a result, teapots are the objects with which artists in all media demonstrate the heights of their technical and creative abilities." "Teapots Transformed: Exploration of an Object tells the tale of this art form, from the traditional, functional teapot to an eclectic mix of contemporary designs. The exhilarating collection is presented in more than 120 vivid full-color photographs. The book will delight tea drinkers around the world, while providing inspiration for artists and a visual feast for the growing number of teapot collectors.
