  • "Biologists are now certain that hybridization has played a major role in the origin of new plant species, but its significance in the evolution of animals is still unclear. This book provides basic information about each of the thousands of types of reported avian crosses. With more than 5,300 works cited, it is the greatest compendium of information ever published on bird hybridization. It familiarizes the reader with the nature of different bird species and their offspring. McCarthy's work fills a need for reference material that takes into account the last half century of data. With more than 4,100 entries, his book provides the most extensive and up-to-date collection of information on hybridization in birds ever assembled."@en
