The quintessential guide to kingdom Animalia

In this masterpiece, Mario Gomboli provides the basis for nearly a decade of intellectual debate and delves into a kernel of zoological thought only surpassed by Stephen Jay Gould himself. In his opening chapter, Gomboli refutes the argument that Animals should be held in zoos because they are not allowed to reproduce at whim. From Aardvark to Wallaby, Gomboli contends that the most amazing animals are those which are k strategists and have a broad realized niche. Lamenting the extinction of the dodo, this guide serves as a threnedy of hope for bioconservationists and teachers alike. Whether you are a first grade student or a post doctoral fellow at Cambridge, this quintissential work is a must read. At this price it is sinful not to put it on your shelf.
