透過壯觀的高品質照片和清晰的解說，本書揭露各類動物令人難以置信的美感、以及牠們的行為和解剖構造──從毛髮到鱗片、從觸鬚到尾巴……
這是關於動物學的優雅介紹，本書提供有趣的觀點、角度和特寫鏡頭，讓這些動物以驚人的細節向您展現，例如蝶蛾類的觸角、鸚鵡的飛羽、或是水母用來進食的觸手──除了解釋身體構造與功能之間的關係，也說明這些構造如何因應環境變遷來演化。
運用野外攝影和詳細的說明，本書對明星動物進行全面的描述，讚嘆這些物種無與倫比的速度、狩獵或偽裝技巧。此外，本書也探索人類如何運用藝術描繪動物──從記錄新發現動物的素描，到受自然世界所啟發的偉大畫作。
憑藉有趣的故事，例如動物之間如何互相溝通、如何捍衛自己的領域並吸引配偶，《動物科學》為動物王國的多樣性提供了引人入勝的介紹。
Explore the everyday miracle of the animal kingdom.
With spectacular, studio-quality photography and clear explanations, this book reveals the incredible anatomy, behaviour, and beauty of every type of creature, from hair to scale and whisker to tail.
This elegant introduction to zoology offers interesting views, angles, and close-ups that show you animals in surprising detail. The unique nose-to-tail approach, with chapters on different body parts, allows you to focus in on the beauty of the antenna of a moth, the flight feathers of a parrot, or the feeding tentacles of a jellyfish. It explains how form relates to function - how each feature is an evolutionary answer to the challenges of environment and lifestyle.
Features on key animals combine photography from the field with rounded descriptions of star species. These species are glowing examples of hunting, speed, camouflage, or any topic in question. The Science of Animals also explores how we have depicted animals in art, from zoological drawings that recorded new discoveries to great paintings inspired by a deep connection to the natural world.
With fascinating stories, such as how animals communicate, defend their territories, and attract mates, The Science of Animals offers an engaging introduction to the diversity of the animal kingdom.
