Essential!

This is an essential book for anyone interested in Ethology and a great beginning for someone who is descovering animal behaviour. It's light (so you can carry it to the beach!) and it's very fluid writting making it easy to grasp the subjects. It's organized according to the four main questions by Nicolaus Tinbergen, and filled with picturestic descriptions of experiments helping you comprehend the topics and working as a memory aid. Essential!
