'Reviewing a book like this could be said to be beyond the scope of one person who cannot do justice to all the labours of so many authors and editors ... The important question is whether the book is a comprehensive summary of current knowledge and this it is ... this is a milestone in modern
ornithology which contains observations from an army of fieldworkers.'
