Recenzijas

"An American Birding Association Best Bird Book of the Year" "Another bargain we have come to expect from Princetons output of birds and wildlife, a book that should find a place on many a bookshelf."---Phil Slade, Another Bird Blog "[ A] remarkable field guide. . . . More birders than ever before are visiting China; rest assured that this is THE guide to take with you. You'll be very happy that you did."---David M. Gascoigne, Travels With Birds "Anyone thinking of going to China needs this book."---John Miles, Birdwatch "This guide is authoritative, comprehensive, accurate, up-to date and aesthetically pleasing. It will be essential for everyone visiting China. It allows for identification of all of the species in this country and offers proof of just how far Chinese ornithology has evolved over the last few decades.

"---Scott K. Robinson, IBIS Book Reviews "No matter the time of year, there will be numerous birds to enjoy in one of the largest countries in the world. [ Birds of China] is well done and put together in a user-friendly fashion for a reasonable price. Enjoy your birding in China."---Deb Hirt, Muskogee Phoenix "[ A] MUST-HAVE for anyone birding China!"---Ian Paulsen, The Birdbooker Report "[ W]hen I travel in China, with its 1,431 species of birds to be found within its borders, no single field guide has previously been sufficient to cover the expansive area across which I must travel on my duly appointed factory-visiting rounds. Fortunately . . . that changed with the publication of the new Birds of China."---John E. Riutta, The Well-read Naturalist
