Reviewed in The Auk in 1996 (113: 975-977). Notes that taxonomic changes made in the book (new genera, splits and lumps, etc.) are often not justifiable and are certainly invalid. Spanish names are best "disregarded". But, good as a field guide: "by far the best field guide and summary of bird diversity available anywhere in the region".

@comments 64 plates (colour and b & w), 2 maps, numerous text figures. The 1988 reprint of original 1975 volume is distributed by Penguin Press, N. Y. Paper $19.95 (1989). ISBN 0-8289-0650-5. Review of original volume (highly recommended) in Auk 93 (4): 862-864 (1976) and in the Ibis 118 (2): 274-275 (1976). Webster (1993) recommends this as the best guide for the general library despite being somewhat dated.



A 1993 Collins edition is $32.95 (Buteo Books, 1994). Review in 1996 Winging it notes it "remains the standard for much of the tropical Oriental region, weakly supported by Martin Woodcock's Birds of India, Nepal, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka".

Apparently this is a handbook and not is intended to be a field guide. Negative review of the sixth edition (versus the fifth) but as a handbook, there is no competitor.



Reviews of earlier editions in Wilson Bulletin p. 179 (1986) and Ibis p. 436 (1986). Recommended by Webster (1993) as a reference book but not as primary field guide for this area (he recommends Newman). Review of fourth edition (1978) in the Auk 95 (4): 777 (1978), in the Ibis 121 (4): 527 (1979) and in the Wilson Bulletin 90 (4): 667-668 (1978).
