The Definitive Visual Guide to the World's Wildlife

This book is an ideal browsing reference for all experience levels,
as well as a delightful addition to the collection of any animal enthusiast

source of information down to the genus level, Animal excels. Don't be
put off by the price! Extraordinarily beautiful, biologically accurate,
and packed with furry, feathery, finny, many-legged delights, Animal is
one of the very best science books of 2001. --Therese Littleton, Amazon.com

Animal
by James Balog (Photographer), B. Martin Pedersen (Editor)
Neither romanticizing the animals nor condescending to them, Balog
breaks from traditional assumptions of what nature photography should be.
Instead, Balog first overturns the boundaries of our expectations with
portraits in the studio style usually reserved for humans; he then goes
so far as to confront the reality of humans hunting animals, and digs below
surface appearances to find meaning in such scenes. In this bold work,
he acknowledges animals as they are --- wild, captive, or somewhere along
the uneasy boundary between the two---and charts the ever-present tension
between the natural and civilized. Amazon.com

Jungles
by Frans Lanting, Christine Eckstrom (Editor)
Jungles are mysterious and even threatening places, among the least
explored landscapes on the earth--and just the sort of place, therefore,
that you might expect to find the ever-intrepid wildlife photographer Frans
Lanting. "The tropical forest may be a naturalist's paradise," he writes,
"but for a photographer it can be a nightmare. Once you are inside it is
all blood, sweat, and leeches. Whatever you take into the forest becomes
part of the food chain, whether it is your equipment or yourself." But
difficult conditions come with the work. In this oversized portfolio of
120 full-color images made over two decades on four continents, Lanting
chronicles the life of the world's jungles, organizing the work by themes
(water and light, color and camouflage, anarchy and order, form and evolution).
As befits the jungle's manic pace, few of the images are static, as Lanting
captures macaws and butterflies and even frogs in flight, orangutans brachiating
their way from vine to vine, turkeys and snakes scrambling and slithering.
Some of the images are nothing short of astonishing, among them views of
an otherworldly cloudforest lobelia thicket in Hawaii and of treetop expanses
that exhibit the phenomenon called "canopy shyness," an arboreal version
of animal territoriality. Admirers of Lanting's previous books, such as
Okavango and Eye to Eye, will prize his new collection, while rainforest
devotees will find much to inspire them in the images he brings before
us. --Gregory McNamee Amazon.com
