"Birds of Paradise" is destined to be the first-ever popular book to reveal the most exotic birds on earth. Photographer and National Geographic grantee Tim Laman and co-author Edwin Scholes (ornithologist/leading authority) travelled to the most remote parts of the New Guinea wilderness - the only place these birds occur - to photograph and study their secret lives. The authors' documentation of the appearance, displays, and behaviours of these 39 species of birds has taken years of dedicated fieldwork. This high quality, large-format photography book will inform and enthral the book-buying public with images of astonishing beauty, solid yet approachable natural history, and a National Geographic message of conservation.
