Walker’s Bats of the World
by R M Nowak
A very good insight into all of the world’s bats. It tells us what they look like, provides numerous photographs and drawings, and a general text on their ways of life with a simple thumbnail sketch. One trouble with bats is the lack of depth of knowledge we yet have of most species. As we speak some taxonomist is splitting one bat species into two species, and other bat species, of course, is becoming extinct, so species numbers are always changing.

The best books on Bats, recommended by Phil Richardson
Bats are remarkably like us in many ways — social animals with complex lives, who put a lot of energy into rearing their young. They also make up around one-fifth of the world’s mammal species. Phil Richardson, co-founder of the UK’s Bat Conservation Trust, recommends five books to learn more about bats around the world.
