			        		&quot;The attempt to get at what a bird sees, hears, feels and thinks is more than worth the effort because there are so many intriguing facts and stories that the reader learns along the way. Remarkable in [its] celebration of birds.&quot; - New York Times (BIRD SENSE)&quot;Thoughtful, thoroughly researched and engagingly written throughout...Birkhead provides a real flavor of life from a bird&apos;s eye view.&quot; - New Scientist (BIRD SENSE)&quot;Excellent book . . . [Birkhead&#x2019;s] intimacy with his avian subjects, and with everything he and centuries of others have observed about them, makes Mr. Birkhead&#x2019;s hypotheses--and his books--so compelling.&quot; - Wall Street Journal (THE MOST PERFECT THING)&quot;I would never have read a book on bird eggs but when I picked up THE MOST PERFECT THING, I thought it was brilliant. It&#x2019;s so wonderful when you come across a book on a subject you&#x2019;re not naturally drawn to and you&#x2019;re completely engaged by it.&quot; - Bill Bryson (THE MOST PERFECT THING)&quot;[Birkhead] writes clearly, with accuracy and wit . . . Birkhead&apos;s historical acumen and sharp pen had me seeing eggs in a new light. He has convinced me that they are splendid, if not indeed most perfect.&quot; - Nature (THE MOST PERFECT THING)
