Abstract
THE main feature of this American book is the series of some two hundred ‘action’ pictures of flying birds by various photographers, including the author. Many of them have appeared before, but they make a remarkable collection, containing much of interest and much of beauty. The text is undistinguished: it gives a brief popular account under the heads of evolution, biology, migration and aerodynamics.
