John MacKinnon is Professor of Biodiversity Information at the Durrell Institute of Conservation and Ecology at the University of Kent in Canterbury, England. He is currently posted in the Philippines as head of a European Union project to set up an ASEAN Regional Centre for Biodiversity Conservation. He is Chairman of a Special Biodiversity Working Group that advises the Chinese Government on biodiversity matters, and formerly spent eight years living in China and Hong Kong working on a number of conservation projects in China. Apart from many technical reports on China he has published two other books on the country - Wild China and A Photoguide to the Birds of China. Among several other books on natural history of Asia, he is also the senior author of A Field Guide to the Birds of Borneo, Sumatra, Java and Bali which remains the standard bird guide to the Greater Sunda Islands.
China is one of the largest countries in the world, covering 7% of the earth's land surface, and encompassing a hugely diverse range of habitats. As a result it boasts a rich and diverse avifauna, including some of the most spectacular and fascinating birds to be found anywhere in the world. John MacKinnon and Karen Phillipps' important new guide will be the first truly comprehensive, taxonomically modern, and fully illustrated field guide to the birds of China. Over 1300 bird species are illustrated in 128 original colour paintings, by Karen Phillipps and Dave Showler. The species accounts stress the key points for field recognition and give a full description of the plumage, voice, range, distribution, status, and behavioral characteristics for every bird, with additional descriptions provided for hundreds of subspecies. Colour distribution maps are provided for all illustrated species. The book also includes a useful introductory section that presents a background to the ecology of China, a brief history of Chinese ornithology, and plenty of practical hints on birdwatching in China. The guide's portable format means it will fit easily into a backpack or pocket. John MacKinnon lived in China and Hong Kong for eight years, and has extensive experience of watching and writing about Chinese birds. He has been working in ecology and conservation in Asia for over 30 years, and his work in China included co-authoring the master plan to save the Giant Panda and its habitat. He has written and co-authored many books on the natural history of Asia, including a number of other bird guides. Karen Phillipps was born in Borneo, lived in Hong Kong for over 20 years, and has illustrated several other books on the birdlife of the region.

评分怎麽可以這樣,在插圖裏,關於候鳥、雛鳥、遷徙鳥、繁殖期鳥等等的註釋可以讓外語同中文混在一起呢?這麽好的一本書就這麽被翻譯、編輯和校對糟蹋了。 中國的自然科學基礎就這麽差?像樣的翻譯編輯都沒有?看看《袖珍觀鳥手冊》,雖然不是介紹中國鳥類,可是裏面插圖的註釋都全...
评分外国人编的中国鸟书,看鸟人必须的工具书,是在小暴带我在川大里的一个书店买的。后来送给了小河马,现在手头只有一个电子版。 遗憾的是这个书使用的手绘图,如果是生态图片,读普通看鸟者会更直观。 写在这里怀念一本书。
评分是是是,有很多人可以在这本书里找出很多这样或那样的毛病。 但也绝对抹杀不了这本横空出世的里程碑似的著作的历史地位。 象老马先生这样关心我们这样一个生物多样性的大国,同时也是个发展中的“穷国”中的人民买不买得起、买不买得到合用的野外手册,并且又有能力去做这么...
