"Whales & Dolphins is a superb introduction to the mysterious and fascinating world of these delightful creatures. Like humans they breathe air, like humans they give birth to live young and like humans they seem to possess intelligence - and if it these similarities which engage our interest, it is their differences which maintain our curiosity. this beautifully illustrated survey travels far and wide - from the turbid waters which camouflage the Amazon river dolphin to the great icy wastes where southern right whales forage for krill, from the tropical lagoons inhabited by bottlenose dolphins to the bays of California where grey whales give birth.
