The Best Book on Dolphins,
By Andy Ridinger (Hurst, Texas /Maui, United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dolphin Societies: Discoveries and Puzzles (Hardcover)
In all my reading on cetaceans, this is by far the most comprehensive, science-oriented book I've ever found. Ms. Pryor and the late Dr. Norris are both among the most highly qualified people on the planet to write (and edit a book) about dolphins, and both contribute their own chapters to this wonderful compendium of research from experts in a number of fields. Subjects covered are diverse, and encompass many topics I had not seen in other books, such as analysis of teeth as an indicator of age and wellness, the behavior of dolphins inside tuna nets, an in-depth analysis of feeding and hunting strategies, and many other intriguing facets of cetacean behavior.This book is a "must-read" for anyone who wants to separate fact from myth and become better grounded in scientific cetacean studies. |
