About This Item
The Reprint Society, London, 1980. Reprint. Hardcover. Good Condition/Good. Illustrator: Konrad Z. Lorenz. Solomon, the legend goes, had a magic ring which enabled him to speak to the animals in their own language. Konrad Lorenz was gifted with a similar power of understanding the animal world. He was that rare beast, a brilliant scientist who could write (and indeed draw) beautifully. He did more than any other person to establish and popularize the study of how animals behave, receiving a Nobel Prize for his work. King Solomon's Ring, the book which brought him worldwide recognition, is a delightful treasury of observations and insights into the lives of all sorts of creatures, from jackdaws and water-shrews to dogs, cats and even wolves. Charmingly illustrated by Lorenz himself, this book is a wonderfully written introduction to the world of our furred and feathered friends, a world which often provides an uncanny resemblance to our own. A must for any animal-lover! 225 pages. Illustrator: Konrad Z. Lorenz. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilogram. Category: Philosophy; Philosophy; Inventory No: 260121. .
