And a review (from the back cover) by the famous wildlife photographer, and Bestseller author,

Frank Hecker, on the beautiful book by Verena Zürcher: 

"Ich bin schwer beeindruckt vom Umfang und von der Vielfältigkeit der Herangehensweise. Das gefällt mir ausgesprochen gut, erweitert meinen vielleicht zu biologischen Blick auf die Natur und macht im jeden Fall Lust auf genaueres Lesen. Die Illustrationen sind klasse. Ein tolles Buch."

("I am deeply impressed by the width and variety of the approach. I like that very much, it expands my perhaps too biological view of nature and definitely makes you want to read more deeply. The illustrations are marvellous. A wonderful book." The translation from the German is mine.)
