Pictorial Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Second Edition. Minor wear to boards. Internally very clean. Binding tight. 246pp The extraordinary story of these fascinating animals, A Fragile Balance provides the most up-to-date information on marsupials without losing sight of the unique set of circumstances that led them to prevalence Down Under. Covering all marsupial species in Australia, the book uses an evolutionary framework to interpret the marsupial's biological traits. Each species account includes a basic biological description, a range map, and a measure of conservation status. The accounts are bounded by general chapters on biology, natural history, cultural history, and conservation. A Fragile Balance is the first book to emphasize interactions between and among marsupials, as well as between humans and marsupials. Combining the expertise of renowned biologist Christopher Dickman with the artistic talents of illustrator Rosemary Woodford Ganf, A Fragile Balance will be a much celebrated reference for mammalogists worldwide, as well as for readers interested in Australian natural and cultural history. Size: 240mm x 310mm. Book.

Gouache and watercolour on paper, signed and dated in the bottom right-hand corner (R. Woodford Ganf 2001), now matted, framed and glazed (visible image size 366 × 266 mm, external dimensions 638 × 521 mm); in fine condition. Rosemary Woodford Ganf (born 1949) illustrated all three volumes of the important limited-edition series, 'Marsupials of Australia'; individual details are as follows. Volume 1: Possums, the Koala and Wombats, by Meredith Smith (1980). Volume 2: Carnivorous Marsupials and Bandicoots, by Meredith Smith and Heather J. Aslin (1987). Volume 3: Kangaroos, Wallabies and Rat-Kangaroos, by John Calaby and Tim Flannery (2005). This painting is not reproduced in the third volume of the series. The artist believes (from memory!) it was done as part of an exhibition at the Adelaide Zoo around 2003-04, where it may have been sold at auction to raise funds.
