If a patient asked for a book on say heart attacks or stokes I would recommend one set of books If a final year medical student asked me what to read on Medicine I would recommend another set of books If the person was a young doctor thinking about a career in Internal Medicine I would recommend others If the person was studying to be physican I would recommend a selection ( our New Zealand System of Physican training follows on British lines ).One could carry on. What one has to do is fit the book(s) to the need and knowledge base of the person. All some people need is a simple well written book-- in many cases good illustrations and diagrams really help with the reader's information uptake. For people to break into a field, there need to be these well written,well illustrated books. They may not cover all the field but they may meet the need of the person. Some may go on and read more deeply Set the bar to high then only those with specialist knowledge will be able to admire these reptiles. I for one am very pleased to own this book-- I also took the reviewer's advice and got the book on Snakes and the one on Chameleons. New Zealand New Zealand is one of the only countries that are Snake free. For those of us who were born in, and have lived in New Zealand all our lives, we tend to get squimish about snakes. I only had a very brief look at the snake section. No doubt later on I will attempt to tackle it. Content. Introductory Chapthers on Diversity of Reptiles Distribution Patterns Biology and Behaviour Finding and Observing Reptiles Snake bites Seperate entries on Reptiles Snakes. The author's note the total number of species in each group. I must admit that hat once you get to know the reptiles ( snakes not included in my case ) the more you want to know. I got the Chameleon book which I have been a noting and now I need a good book on lizards in general. Summary. I found this a very useful book. It gave me a leg up to start learning about reptiles.http://www.holocaustresearch.pl/nowy/photo/easycoder-301-manual.xml Helpful descriptions with. Helpful photos.The lay out is exactly the same as the other Johan Marais book, snakes of southern Africa, and as i think snakes of is great i was very dissapointed by the reptiles of book. Why you are asking. Well i have got the impression that the book is the snakes of southern africa with a little addition,an addition that is not specified enough. The snakes are allready cramped together,dwarf bitis species for example are put together as dwarf adders and are generally spoken of,snakes so special for the region merit it to be seperated into species instead of being piled together. The lizard chapter was for me the most dissapointing part. All the lizards (few exeptions) are cramped together in little family groups and not described or shown seperated on the maps, a big mis as a lot of the reptiles of southern Africa have a small distribution range. Why i ask myself ? Mister Marais is capable of making great books as shown before,photowork is great,lay out,but not it is not enough in my opinion. So if you want to know something about the reptiles of southern africa,this book is great. Do you need some expert advise on distribution,species etc.sorry this is not what you need.Good price and came quickly Good price and came quicklyIt was good enough to identify most of the lizard types but a number of individuals await identification.This book fills all the gaps in professional but easy to read manner. With extremely concise descriptions of the various species, including the best areas to see them, our regular trips to Southern Africa will benefit from this book.Das Buch halt sich leider so allgemein, das mir damit eine Benennung nicht moglich ist.Page 1 of 1 Start over Page 1 of 1 Previous page Next page.
