Title: Costa Rican Natural History by Daniel H. Janzen ISBN: 0-226-39334-8 Publisher: University of Chicago Press Pub. Date: November, 1983 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $39.00 |
Average Customer Rating: 5 (3 reviews)

Summary: COMPENDIUM
Comment: At a hefty 800 plus pages (with 174 contributors, no less!), this collection has something for everyone--and manages not to skimp on the essentials or pad itself with filler. Though it would serve well as an introduction, "Costa Rican Natural History" is even better as a companion (especially to my favorite book on the country, "Costa Rica: The Last Country The Gods Made").
Rating: 5
Summary: An example for this kind of book.
Comment: I wish every book about the natural history of a country were as thorughly compiled as this one. The only drawback is that it's too hefty and too slack to read in bed or in the hammock - you have to sit upright, but that's a small sacrifice for the great amount of easy accessible information. It's hard to stop reading this fascinating book.

Summary: A comprehensive overview of Costa Rican flora and fauna
Comment: In this biological bible of Costa Rica, Janzen leaves no stone unturned. From evolutionary history to weather patterns to animals and trees, he covers all facets of basic natural science. This book is a must for anyone pursuing biological study or ecolgical interest in Costa Rica or anywhere in the New World tropics
