Greg and Mary Beth Dimijian have produced a book full of wonderful images of animals, animal behavior, and animal habitats around the world. Each image is coupled with a short but insightful essay which expounds upon the behavior illustrated, or the circumstances of taking the photograph, or simply makes a point about the environment, evolution, or biology. Greg Dimijian, a former clinical psychologist, and his wife, Mary Beth, have travelled the world from the tropics to antarctica and present a dazzling array of dynamic and beautiful images. The essays, with their up-to-date discussions of behavioral theory and biology are written for the layman, but are fascinating and concisely written. There is also a delightful foreward by Jane Goodall. A wonderful gift for anyone with a love of animals, biology, or photography
