This was an excellent scientific adventure through a well organized collection of recent studies on birds. I wasnt much of a bird person before reading this, but after I am numerous times more interested in our knowledge of how birds learn and evolve and how this parallels our own human experience. Some of the studies were truly fascinating.

Somewhat interesting, but too detailed on bird brain structure, for example and too much focus on one bird (the crow of new caldonia). DNF
