Description
This beautifully illustrated encyclopedia, arranged in alphabetical sequence, covers the natural history of India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Burma, Bhutan, and Nepal. It contains 550 articles by 96 contributors and encompasses 2 subject categories, each edited by a well-known authority in the field. Thus, for example, the entries on birds have been co-ordinated by the late Dr Salim Ali, the celebrated ornithologist. The Encyclopedia is an indispensable source of reference for anyone keen to discover the infinite variety of the plant and animal life of the Indian Subcontinent.
