Nature's Fading Chorus: Classic & Contemporary Writings on Amphibians

Rating:
Summary: Very highly recommended for students of environmental issues
Review: Nature's Fading Chorus: Classic And Contemporary Writings On Amphibians is a collection of writings drawn from the entire Western natural history tradition, beginning with Aristotle's "Inquiry Concerning Animals" written in the fourth century B.C.E., and continuing through recent scientific accounts of the relatively sudden (and highly alarming) global declines and deformities in amphibian species. Nature's Fading Chorus reveals a great deal about amphibian life while also providing fascinating insight into the world views of the many writers, scientists, and naturalists who have delved into phenomena of amphibian population decimation over the past several decades. Very highly recommended reading for students of environmental issues, Nature's Fading Chorus is also an ideal introduction into the subject for non-specialist general readers with an interest in natural history and wildlife in general, and amphibians in particular.
