Birds of Central Asia is the first field guide to include the former Soviet republics of Kazakhstan, Kirghizstan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan, along with neighbouring Afghanistan. This vast area includes a diverse variety of habitats, and the avifauna is similarly broad, from sandgrouse, ground jays and larks on the vast steppe and semi-desert to a broad range of raptors, and from woodland species such as warblers and nuthatches to a suite of montane species, such as snowcocks, accentors and snowfinches. This book includes 141 high-quality plates covering every species (and all distinctive races) that occur in the region, along with concise text focusing on identification and accurate colour maps.

Schweizer, Manuel: - Manuel Schweizer is an internationally renowned ornithologist and lifelong birder with a strong expertise in the systematics and identification of Palearctic birds. He is curator of ornithology at the Natural History Museum of Bern and lecturer at University of Bern, Switzerland. He is co-author of a field guide, Birds of Central Asia, and his work on avian systematics, phylogenetics and biogeography have been published in major scientific journals. His many contributions to leading birding magazines bridge the gap between scientific research and practical birding.
