Description: Solomon the legend goes had a magic ring which enabled him to speak to the animals in their own language. Konrad Lorenz was gifted with a similar power of understanding the animal world. He was that rare beast a brilliant scientist who could write (and indeed draw) beautifully. He did more than any other person to establish and popularize the study of how animals behave receiving a Nobel Prize for his work. King Solomon's Ring the book which brought him worldwide recognition is a delightful treasury of observations and insights into the lives of all sorts of creatures from jackdaws and water - shrews to dogs cats and even wolves. Charmingly illustrated by Lorenz himself this book is a wonderfully written introduction to the world of our furred and feathered friends a world which often provides an uncanny resemblance to our own. A must for any animal - lover!
