5.0 out of 5 stars A fantastic book, 18 Mar 2009

By	Trnkoczy Amadej (Slovenia EC) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Absolutely a fantastic book. Precise keys, beautiful pictures and highly informative, condensed text with many hints on possible misidentifications and/or less common species not thoroughly treated in the book Generally beautiful design, high quality printing, paper and bounding. My only comment relates to the design. Too much white paper surface. Wide margins around text and pictures and after the species paragraphs ... This is certainly a design decision which enhances (to some people) a noble look of the book, but it sets 'design' above 'functionality' which I don't find good. The book could be made less heavy (and cheaper) with a more condensed design approach. As it is, it is very, very heavy. It is not (and cannot be) cheap, but you will certainly not regret your money if the subject is of your interest.
