 Buy-ologist Beware April 29, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I just received my mail-ordered copy of the "second edition", Ecology and Management of the North American Moose. As I have found the first edition (1998) to be a very valuable source of information, I thought that a second edition was an essential purchase for a practicing moose biologist such as myself. I immediately flipped to the preface to learn about the latest edition, hoping to read about all the updates and new information added since the first edition was published a decade ago. But, alas, I found nothing new. Maybe some typos were corrected, but aside from the different photo on the dust jacket, everything else appears to be the same as the first edition (eg same preface, same dedication, same chapters, same number of pages--though it's printed on thicker paper, so is "bigger"). From what I can surmise, it's a second printing, not a second edition. Rather deceptive, in my opinion. If you already own the 1998 edition, you won't likely have much use for the "second edition". I'll be returning this book.
 more info on moose than most people will ever dream of! March 21, 2000
If you're a moose-aphile, then this is your book! Every aspect of the moose is covered and includes great pencil drawings and photos. While written for scientists, most of the book is still quite readable for the layperson. I haven't read most of the book, but I do thumb through it regularly, and I always read something else that I never knew about the moose!
Amazing, informative, breathtaking, godsend, detailed, etc! February 26, 1999
I would like to take this oportunity to thank all of the people/scientists, biologists, volunteers, etc. who helped put this awesome book together. The information in this book is coming from hands-on time consuming experience. This book is truly a mooselover's bible. I hold the men and women who devote their lives to researching this beautiful animal in the hightest respects. I just hope someday I may be part of the group of people contributing their knowledge into a future book as great as this one. I would like to say a special hello and thank you to the people of the Moose Research Center (MRC) at Kenai Peninsula, Alaska. I hope to be offered the wonderful opportunity of being able to volunteer at MRC. Moose and this book combined have opened up whole new doors to life's avenues for me. Again, thank you for your time and efforts in bringing this great book to us. I love it
