Beschreibung

Award-winning writer and ornithologist Tim Birkhead takes us on an epic and dazzling journey through this mutual history with birds.

Since the dawn of human history, birds have stirred our imagination, inspiring and challenging our ideas about science, faith, art and philosophy, from the ibises mummified by Ancient Egyptians and Renaissance experiments on the woodpecker to the Victorian obsessions with egg collecting and our present fight to save endangered species.

Weaving in stories from his own life as a scientist, this rich and fascinating book is the culmination of a lifetime''s research and unforgettably shows how birds shaped us, and how we have shaped them.

''Thought-provoking at every turn, this inspiring, shocking, wonder-filled exploration of our relationship with birds'' Isabella Tree, author of Wilding

''A fascinating book about the close and often surprising relationship between birds and people'' Stephen Moss
