Recensione

One of the most attractive, well-produced and comprehensive guides ever published... 'Whales, Dolphins and Seals' is a tour de force for authors Hadoram Shirihai and artist Brett Jarrett. The lavishly illustrated paperback is a delight, with Jarrett's exquisitely crafted paintings, copious colour photographs and a text that is well laid out and highly informative. It really is a delightful book. --Sunday Express (22nd October 2006)

A bargain at £12.99, this is an excellent buy and a must for cetacean lovers. --Birdwatch (December 2006)

It is likely to become the definitive guide to these fascinating creatures. - Saturday Guardian (25th November 2006)
An excellent book. The layout for the species pages is eye-catching but easy to read. There is a pleasing mix of photographs and and high quality artwork for each species together with texts that cover descriptions, behaviour, distribution and similar species. An invaluable field guide at a very reasonable price. - BTO News (March/April 2007)

This beautifully illustrated and informative text has fast become the definitive guide to the marine mammals of the world. - WDCS

Excellent field guide - Wanderlust (october 2010

Keep handy in the cockpit on your next adventure.
--Ontario Sailor
