Southern Africa has a wealth of mammal fauna, and is home to about 530
species, including tiny shrews, intriguing pangolins and majestic
whales. All the species that occur in the region are featured in this
updated sixth edition of Stuarts' Field Guide to Mammals of Southern
Africa. This comprehensive guide features:
• Fully updated text based on the most recent research and taxonomy.
• Detailed species accounts describing key identification
characteristics, behaviour, habitat, diet, reproduction and longevity.
• Visual identification tools, including full-colour photographs, spoor
and size icons, and skull photographs.
• Up-to-date distribution maps showing the geographical range of each
species within the region.
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

This interdisciplinary book investigates the various ways in which
North American and European modern and contemporary artists,
authors, and musicians have returned to earlier works of their own,
engaging in inventive revivals and transformations of the past in
the present. The book is distinctive in its focus on such revisits,
as well as in the diversity of art forms under review: In addition
to visual art, the book explores fiction, poetry, literary
criticism, film, rock music, and philosophy. This scope, together
with the time-span covered in the book, from the 1850s to the
twenty-first century, allows for a broad view on retrospection and
revision. The case studies presented here offer a diversified
exploration of the widely different goals to which practitioners of
the arts have made retrospection and revision functional against
the background cultural, social, political, or personal forces and
bring into view a wide range of artistic motivations.
