Australian Wildlife Secrets Vol.2 No.6

Australian Wildlife Secrets’ stunning images and articles make wildlife come to life. Feel the wind as raptors take to the air; hear the ocean splash between the pages as a whale breaches; listen to the rustling of the leaves as a goanna runs past. All this in an exhilarating 48-page read that is as immersive in capturing wildlife in their native habitat as it is informative on issues such as conservation and ecology.

Bringing together papers from various subfields of theoretical linguistics, this volume gives a representative glimpse of current research of form and function in grammar. Its overarching topic is the relation between the major clause types and their canonical or idiosyncratic roles in discourse. Though none of the papers addresses the topic in its full breadth, they all make their specific contributions to it, scrutinizing the pertinent aspects of the grammatical interfaces and elaborating detailed case studies.

Wildlife Monographs - Wolves

There are probably more myths and legends about wolves than any other living creature. In fiction, they are most often portrayed as evil but in this book the authors set out, in words and pictures, to produce a clearer and un-prejudiced understanding of the lives of these carnivorous mammals; their history, habits, distribution, environment and their association with man, himself a hunter. The features include: stunning full colour photography; high gloss paperback with flaps; and engaging text.

Wildlife Monographs - Puffins

The comical and colorful faces of puffins have earned them the popular name 'clowns of the sea'. On land they waddle and hop amongst rocks to and from their burrows, but once in the air, they wheel and turn with great agility and grace. The author portrays the multifarious activities of these lovable seabirds during their breeding season and reveals how they live and survive at high altitudes.
