Die Welt in einer Eierschale

Why do palm trees shrink when the toucan disappears? What do seabirds have to do with coral reefs? And: Why do we need biodiversity for our collective (survival)? This book addresses these and similar questions, attempting to provide answers through short, entertaining factual stories, beautifully illustrated in full-page format. It offers insight into the complexity of interdependencies in nature using examples from the avian world, thus making an important contribution to an ongoing pressing debate.
