The trials of life - A natural history of animal behaviour (Broché)

In The Trials of Life, David Attenborough explores how animals live and behave. He takes twelve key stages in all animals' lives - arriving, growing up, finding food, hunting and escaping, finding the way, home-making, living together, fighting, friends and rivals, talking to strangers, courting and continuing the line - and looks at how the solutions developed by different species are hugely varied and often astounding.
And they are all the more comprehensible and engaging for they are the trials that we as a species face ourselves.
