He celebrates the great innovative minds in the field, from the seventeenth-century Englishman John Ray to David Lack, whose evolutionary ideas transformed our understanding of the life histories of birds. With a wealth of facts and a vast store of entertaining stories, Tim Birkhead's lavishly illustrated book is for everyone who has every been captivated by birds and their very considerable beauty."
