    Feral pigeons are among the most familiar and abundant of the birds of the world. They are a major urban pest species, living closely in association with man but with all the characteristics of highly adapted wild birds. This book focuses on population biology and behavioural ecology, and includes a very thorough listing of primary references in the scholarly literature.

    There is much interesting information about this very successful bird in this book. Highly recommended. * Donald S. Heintzelman, Wildlife Activist, No. 25, December 1995 * the most comprehensive assemblage of information on the biology of feral pigeons to date ... The authors provide an impressive array of data concerning the origin and evolution of feral pigeons. The bibliography is extensive and includes eastern European as well as other non-English language citations. * IBIS * a thorough academic text investigating most aspects of feral pigeons ... An indispensable guide to any ornithologist intending to study feral pigeons seriously ... I found the volume fascinating in places and it gave me a new insight into an everyday bird which affords easy study at close quarters. * Neil Anderson, The London Naturalist, No. 76, 1997 *
