Avian Incubation: Behaviour, Environment, and Evolution (Oxford Ornithology Series, 13)

Book Description

This is the first scientific review of all factors affecting incubation in avian nests. These range from nest construction, egg characteristics and patterns of embryonic development. There is an extensive section describing incubation behaviour of parents and embryos, and there are chapters reviewing brood patch physiology and the various factors determining the incubation environment, including nest microbiology. Another section provides chapters giving detailed descriptions of examples of unusual aspects of avian incubation, whilst the final section provides consideration of the ecological, energetic and fitness cost of incubation. Written by authorities in their respective fields from around the world, this provides a comprehensive review of this critical aspect of avian reproduction. Much of the data included has not been previously published, and so Avian Incubation is not only an extensive reference text but is also a valuable contribution to our basic understanding of incubation.

Book Description

This is the first re-appraisal in 50 years of concepts of development made in birds. This book is a case study in evolutionary diversification of life histories. Although birds have a rather uniform body plan and physiology, they exhibit marked variation in development type, parental care, and rate of growth. Altricial birds are fully dependent on their parents for warmth and nutrition and begin posthatching life in a more or less embryonic condition. At the other extreme, such superprecocial species as the megapodes are independent of all parental care from hatching, and the neonate, able to fly, resembles an adult bird. This book thus attempts to present an integrative perspective of organism biology, ecology, and evolution.

Book Description

In biology, few organs have been as elusive as the lung-air sac system of birds. Considerable progress has recently been made to fill the gaps in the knowledge. While summarizing and building on earlier observations and ideas, this book provides cutting-edge details on the development, structure, function, and the evolutionary design of the avian respiratory system. Outlining the mechanisms and principles through which biological complexity and functional novelty have been crafted in a unique gas exchanger, this account will provoke further inquiries on the many still uncertain issues. The specific goal here was to highlight the uniqueness of the design of the avian respiratory system and the factors that obligated it.

Among the Dockum fossil beds of West Texas in 1983, paleontologist Sankar Chatterjee made a momentous discovery: the fossilized remains of a curious creature subsequently dubbed Protoavis, or primordial bird. In The Rise of Birds, Chatterjee writes that Protoavis predates Archaeopteryx, previously known as the "first bird" by some 75 million years, and that it is more closely related to the modern bird than its Johnny-come-lately rival. But Protoavis is only the starting point for this sweeping, detailed, and beautifully illustrated history of bird evolution. Chatterjee examines the many recent discoveries of bird fossils all over the world and comes to some fascinating and often surprising conclusions: the evolutionary link between birds and dinosaurs, for instance, or their near-extinction (along with the dinosaurs) when large meteors fell to earth almost 65 million years ago. From the distinguishing characteristics of avian anatomy to theories about the first avian flight, Chatterjee's book is a thoughtful and accessible look at one of the most flourishing products of evolution.

Book Description

"I'm sure that May 21, 1986, will remain among the most memorable days of my career. On my way to Albuquerque, New Mexico, I had stopped in Lubbock, Texas, to study the Triassic archosaurs collected by Sankar Chatterjee from the Dockum beds of west Texas. I expected to see fossils of the large-headed carnivore Postosuchus, the armored herbivore Desmatosuchus, and the crocodile-like parasuchians. I wasn't expecting to see what I saw..." -- Lawrence M. Witmer, from the foreword

Dinosaurs are so popular that we often neglect their flying relatives that are still among us. Birds, the true "living dinosaurs," deserve considerable respect as successful vertebrates that have evolved, adapted, and survived over a period of 225 million years. The Rise of Birds is the first detailed, illustrated, and comprehensive review of the fossil record of birds in a modern phylogenetic context. Distinguished paleontologist Sankar Chatterjee provides a clear and exciting chronology documenting the long odyssey of birds since Protoavis -- which may have taken to the air some 75 million years before the widely known "first bird," Archaeopterix.

Throughout The Rise of Birds, Chatterjee offers a wealth of fascinating details from the colorful history of birds past and present. Among them: • Some intelligent theropods such as dromaeosaurs were arboreal and could climb trees with their swivel wrist joint and stiff tail. They were capable of parachuting and gliding from tree to ground.

• The discovery of downy theropod dinosaurs from China indicates that upper jaw mobility, not feathers, is the most distinctive characteristic of birds.

• Most birds were wiped out 65 million years ago, along with the dinosaurs, by large meteoritic impacts. However, few lineages of birds rebounded from this catastrophe and underwent an explosive evolution.

The Rise of Birds discusses the significance of all the many recently discovered bird and possible bird fossils, from Europe to China to Latin America. Chatterjee outlines the varying theories of how animal flight developed, and he explains, in terms of comparative anatomy, what makes a bird a bird. The book covers some of the greatest events in avian development: their emergence in the Triassic pangean world, their flight refinement and global diversification during the continental breakup of the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods, their sudden decline at the end-Cretaceous extinction, their rebound and explosive radiation dur-ing the Cenozoic era, and finally their destiny with us.

Beautifully illustrated by Michael W. Nickell, this book will be of interest to a broad range of readers, including vertebrate paleontologists, ornithologists, and amateur naturalists, including birders.

A succinct introduction to Chatterjee's work.......2004-12-01

The Rise of Birds is a lavishly illustrated and stylistically impressive book which admirably summarizes Sankar Chatterjee's work since the discovery of Protoavis in the late 1980s. If you are looking for a comprehensive analysis of the potential avian status of Protoavis texensis, I suggest Chatterjee's actual journal papers (esp. Chatterjee 1991) as this book presents only a diluted version of the arguments in question. While this is suitable for an introductory level readership, those already familiar with the issues discussed in this book will be discouraged by the generality of it.

This aside, it is still an excellent overview of several of the major topics of contention in our understanding of bird origins and the evolution of bird flight. Though dated at this point, for those who are looking for an accessible, well-illustrated and well-written introduction to the field of avian paleontology and evolution, this volume is a good choice for their shelf (among others).

The Rise of Birds: 225 Million Years of Evolution.......2004-07-10

The Rise of Birds: 225 Million years of Evolution written by Sankar Chatterjee and illustrated by Michael W. Nickell is an excellent book about the rise of birds and has some very interesting comparative anatomy as Chatterjee compares the Protoavis "first bird" found by Chatterjee in Texas in 1983, with other fossil remains and comes to his own conclusions as to how flight began for birds.

As we read on in the book, we find that the fossilzed evidence of the Mesozoic birds is still quite sketchy and there exist some remarkable holes to be filled in from the fossil record. This book is becoming a little dated as there has been some new evidence in the fossil record coming out of China that has been remarkable and isn't covered in the book as the publishing date preceeds that finding of this new fossil evidence.

Protoavis has been looked upon by scientists in the past and conclusions to where it fit in in the fossil record are just now coming to light and makes for interesting reading. Scientists have been ignoring Protoavis until Chatterjee and his published analysis giving Protoavis a closer look.

Dinosaurs are so popular and we have a tendency to often over look or neglect their bird relatives... this link is becoming stronger and stronger as more fossil finds are linking the dinosaurs to birds... making birds the true living dinosaurs that demand respect.

"The Rise of Birds: 225 Million Years of Evolution" is a very well illustrated text making for easy comparative anatomic analysis. The detail is comprehensive and we read about a modern phylogenetic context. Also, throughout the text Chatterjee fascinates the reader with a wealth of details from the colorful history of birds from past to present.

Chatterjee goes into detail about how flight emerged, whether from the ground up or from the trees to the ground as a gliding type of flight. This argument is detailed with the dromaeosaurs, as an intelligent theopod, was an arboreal tree climber with swivel wrist joints and a stiff tail.

The reader needs a little science background to get the maximum effect from the book, but it is wriiten in a way that a broad range of people can get some benefit reading this book, from vertebrate paleontologist, ornithologists, and amateur naturalists such as birders. This book would qualify as a book on Paleobiology, but very readable with ample detail in explaining the finer points.

"The Rise of Birds: 225 Million Years of Evolution" will captivate you and you will learn some of the finer points in flight and evolution, as the book covers fossil evidence from Europe to China and Latin America making this book a very comprehensive starting source... albeit a dated source. As this book covers some of the greatest events in avian development we see that birds are linked to their Triassic cousins, their flight refinement and global diversification. I gave this book a solid five stars for a intelligent and captivating and educational read. There was a logic to the presentation in this book making the reader feel comfortable as you read on and learn.

Revolution or scaremonger?.......2002-06-20

Dino-aves theory has not been the total consensus yet. Under the situation, Prof.Chatterjee audaciously published an shocking book. It should have been, however, to be honest, disappointing. If his Protoavis & his interpretation is real, it should be earthshattering event. More advanced bird than Archaeopteryx already existed in Triassic! Which means more primitive one (ancestral form) should be looked for in rocks of maybe Permian or even could be of Carboniferous! Powered flight occurred in such an early stage! Palaeozoic & Mesozoic vertebrate story would be obliged to revised completely.
For such a rebellious topic, the content is not sufficiently convincing. The problem is the remainder of Protoavis is quite fragmental. Photos & much more detailed explanation of the interpretation of each referred bones are definitely needed for the restoration drawing. That's the main feature of this book! Otherwise readers might be confused.
Also lack the scenario, although it might be impossible to present fossil evidence, before & after Protoavis. Even speculative.
Meticulaous is the skull of Iberomesornis whose skull has not yet discovered. Nevertheless, no caution on the drawing.
As a whole, indigestion. This book tells a little.
If one likes to know or study anatomical features of birds & dinosaurs, I'd recommend to look for a book or text of bird anatomy on one hand, and Predatory Dinosaurs of the World (by Gregory Paul) on the other.

fairly technical but interesting book on fossil birds.......2001-03-01

Chatterjee does a great job in presenting his case for Protoavis, a bird that may very well precede the famous Archaeopteryx of the Jurassic. Though a bit technical at times, it has a good overview of bird evolution and of fossil birds throughout the Mesozoic and throughout the Cenozoic, with excellent coverage of many Tertiary species, especially at Green River(from the Eocene of Wyoming) and Messel (from the Eocene of Central Europe). Their relationship to dinosaurs is well covered, and some time is spent on the K/T event that ended much Mesozoic life. Numerous diagrams and illustrations and a thorough bibliography. While not all may agree with his take on Protoavis, this remains a worthwhile on avian evolution and fossil bird speciesA good book.

A excellent, complete and up-to-date review.......1999-03-17

Although this book is much about the finding of Protoavis, it is also much more than that. The Jurassic, Cretaceous and Tertiary birds are all treated, a superb argument for the evolution of flight from tree-dwelling dromaeosaurs is made, an important contribution to the understanding of the End-Cretaceous extinction is presented and the too-often neglected subject of heterochrony is discussed, too. The figures are excellent and very useful to help understand the text, which is sometime loaded with anatomical jargon. The book ends with a wise review of the modern extinction caused by spead of humanity to every corner of the planet.

I also think that the recent discoveries made in China can be well integrated in the frame set by Chatterjee, so the book is not out of date at all.

All in all, a formidable book for undergraduates and professionnals.

Description:
Following a period of privatization and restructuring, commercial banks in Central and Eastern Europe and, more recently, in the Balkans have expanded rapidly their lending to the private sector. This paper studies whether these developments are consistent with a process of convergence and structural financial deepening by estimating an ''equilibrium'' level of the bank-credit-to-GDP ratio. It concluded that while there is no clear evidence that the recent increases in bank credit ratios is inconsistent with financial deepening, policy-makers will have to evaluate carefully its implications for macroeconomic developments and financial stability.

A real heartwarmer.......2005-08-05

My MIL gave this to me as a gift, and it's fantastic! While in some ways it's advertising for Macomber's novels, the theme gives it a true "Knit Along" feel. Patterns are written in plain English, with a wide variety of skill levels; a section in the back offers basic techniques, reference charts, and illustrations for those who need a little help. The print and illustrations are large, and there are big, beautiful photographs and bold color sprinkled throughout.

I do appreciate that each yarn type is included, but what I love most is *how* it's included: there's a reference inside the back cover for the exact brands, colors, and amounts of yarn used in each project photo. Within the pattern itself, you're simply provided yarn weight, amount needed, and color suggestions (when needed). I really enjoyed having this information kept separate!

I'm planning to start with the First Steps Baby Blanket (a cute eyelet pattern), translate the Vera's Scarf pattern into a lacy shawl, and see what happens from there!

i loved how the pattern book reflected the story that goes by the same name. the pictures were beautiful and the step-by-step instructions made me feel, as a beginner, that i could produce these same treasures. after reading each book, i am now anxious to start working on the same projects that lydia held classes in.

If you are an avid knitter and you are reading this book you may find yourself wanting to see the patterns and maybe trying them out yourself. This is the perfect complement to the novel as it lays out the patterns for all the items the ladies are making in the book. I've done one of the blankets so far and it was fairly easy to follow the pattern.

Since I'm a beginner, this didn't have enough detailed information to start a project. The illustrations are beautiful though. When I get a little bit more basic knitting, I'm sure this book will come in handy.

Both delighted and disappointed.......2005-12-11

When I got this book and paged through it, I was delighted with the baby blankets and I've decided to knit several of them. I was also excited because I love the "Yarn Shop" series. Debbie Macomber captures the spirit of a Local Yarn Shop beautifully.

So was I bitterly disappointed when I looked up the recommended yarns for the project. These are yarns that are available in large chain stores, not in local yarn shops. I can appreciate that people are interested in knitting affordably, but there could at least be a mix of yarns. Much of what I loved about the original books is the knitting community that takes place in a local yarn shop. Having ALL of the recommended yarns in the pattern books come from chain stores betrays the premise of the stories. The stories could not have taken place anywhere else, yet the companion books send you to buy yarn from the very stores that are driving small shops out of business.

Knit Along with Debbie Macomber.......2005-09-12

I love her knitting novels. This book with the patterns from her first knitting book is super. Some of the patterns are a little challenging for a new knitter, but there are a few that are reasonably easy. The book is in an attractive format with very nice full color pictures of the projects. There are quite a few patterns included along with some knitting instructions. This is really worth the money.
