		Ali and Ripley's masterwork cannot be touched in terms of the completeness of individual descriptions, but this volume is amazing in that it draws together all the subcontinent's spp.
		The maps are miniscule and that limits their utility; the use of two colours would have helped under the circumstances.
		It is the only book of one volume that covers all the birds of the Indian subcontinent with this quality of illustration.

		There are now many books on Indian birds.
		Salim Ali's Book of Indian Birds is still the best place for the beginner to learn the ropes, while Grimmett and Co's big book has all the fine points of identification.
