Very good condition. "Research on the mammals of Africa has been very active over the last twenty years, both for applied purposes such as management and conservation of ungulate herds, crop protection and disease control, and to enhance our understanding of this most diverse mammalian fauna on earth. A great deal of this activity has been in southern Africa and it is therefore very timely to present an up-to-date classification. For practical reasons it has been limited to southern Africa, but since many of the species involved extend far beyond the boundary of that region the compilation has necessarily drawn upon work done elsewhere in Africa, and in turn the results will be of considerable relevance and value north of the Zambezi."
