With this volume, the well-known author begins a three-part book series that will cover all breeding directions of canary breeding in a compact form. In volume 1, the interesting history of the Canary's development into a domestic bird is examined from partly new aspects. The book contains tried and tested advice on keeping, caring for and breeding canaries in a manner appropriate to their species, as well as on a balanced, largely natural diet. In addition to an introduction to the anatomy of birds, embryonic development and feather structure, the volume also deals with compactly compiled advice on the treatment of diseases and parasite infestations. The special section of the book explains the four most important song canary breeds and their songs. In addition, there are valuable tips on breeding the song-colour and song-posture canaries. This part of the book is rounded off with tips on breeding and training the song canaries.

Modern humans, descendants of a founding population that separated from chimpanzees some five to eight million years ago, are today the only living representative of a branching group of African apes called hominins. Because of its extraordinary size and shape, the baobab (Adansonia digitata L.) has long been identified as the most striking tree of Africa’s mosaic savanna, the landscape generally regarded as the environment of hominin evolution. This book makes the case for identifying the baobab as the tree of life in the hunter-gatherer adaptation that was the economic foundation of hominin evolution. The argument is based on the significance of the baobab as a resource-rich environment for the Hadza of northeastern Tanzania, who continue to be successful hunter-gatherers of the African savanna.
