Skulls: An Exploration of Alan Dudley's Curious Collection

A really good book - if you're 'into' that sort of thing ! I shall look forward to studying the subject more closely (more for the aesthetics than anything else)A well packed book , promptly delivered at a very acceptable price. Many thanks.

I was blown away by this book. The photography, design, layout, text - everything is just so thoughtfully put together, reflecting this one of a kind collection beautifully. For artists, animal enthusiasts, or just as an utterly fascinating coffee-table book, it is worth every penny.Magnificent, and clearly a work of absolute passion for the subject matter. I knew it would be good, but wasn't expecting it to be this breathtaking.

I am pleased with this book, it's interesting and shows a broad spectrum of skulls from across the animal kingdom. However, as mentioned by other reviewers, there is no sense of scale, the pictures are all of a similar size. It would be helpful for the description of the animal/bird/reptile to include a bodylength/height, particularly for lesser known species. Also, I noticed that there are a couple of sheep skulls, shown mostly for impressive horns maybe, and they are classified as 'Bovidae', can this be right? They are even toed ungulates, but surely not bovids. Any thoughts?

the book was great with photos of skulls and description of the biology and history of the specimen

Interesting book with excellent photographs, it covers many species including domestic animals and birds with informational paragraphs or sentences on many, if not all. The format of the book feels substantial, too.

Beautiful book, I'd love to see more angles of each skull though. It has led to some interesting suggestions from Amazon for books on autopsies and taxidermy!

This book is full of incredible photographs of a large number of skulls. It's beautiful and fascinating. Great fodder for any artist too.

Arrived very quickly, excellent book, no problems, thank you.
