Heinrich involves us in his quest to get inside the mind of the
raven. But as animals can only be spied on by getting quite close,
Heinrich adopts ravens, thereby becoming a "raven father," as well
as observing them in their natural habitat. He studies their daily
routines, and in the process, paints a vivid picture of the ravens'
world. At the heart of this book are Heinrich's love and respect
for these complex and engaging creatures, and through his keen
observation and analysis, we become their intimates too.
Heinrich's passion for ravens has led him around the world in
his research. Mind of the Raven follows an exotic journey--from New
England to Germany, and from Montana to Baffin Island in the high
Arctic--offering dazzling accounts of how science works in the
field, filtered through the eyes of a passionate observer of
nature. Each new discovery and insight into raven behavior is
thrilling to read, at once lyrical and scientific.
