1829 Wilson's American Ornithology on CD This listing is for another lovely CD republication by VLR, of the rare Wilsons ornithology book of 1829. Ornithology (from Greek: ὄñíéò, ὄñíéèïò, ornis, ornithos, "bird"; and ëüãïò, logos, "knowledge") is the branch of zoology concerned with the study of birds. Several aspects of the study of ornithology differ from closely related disciplines, due partly to the high visibility and the aesthetic appeal of birds. Most marked among these is the extent of field studies undertaken by amateur volunteers working within the parameters of strict scientific methodology. The science of ornithology has a long history and studies on birds aided the introduction and refinement of key concepts in evolution, behaviour and ecology such as those of species, speciation, instinct, learning, ecological niches, guilds, island biogeography, phylogeography and conservation. While early ornithology was principally concerned with descriptions and distributions of species This CD collection contains the first 20 volumes containg over Over 70 COLOR PLATES - Hundreds of Images!
