[Book review] The sound approach to birding: A guide to understanding bird sound

What is the “Sound Approach”? It is a trio of enthusiastic bird-sound recordists-analysts (Arnoud B. van den Berg, Mark Constantine, and Magnus Robb) who, with friends, traveled to 42 countries in a massive effort to record all the songs and calls of the birds of the Western Palearctic. The recordings in this guide are selected from the 30,000 or so recorded digitally with stereo microphones by the authors since the year 2000.
