Review

`'...a wonderful reference source...''
Watford Observer

`'...For the serious ornithologist "The Complete Birds of the Western Palearctic" is the reference tool...''
Oldham Evening Chronicle

`'...an extremely useful way of revising information which was committed to print more than 20 years ago. But the raison d'etre is the additional multimedia material, and the video clips are first class...''
