The city is full of animals of various kinds. It may seem surprising, but urban environments and human activity can actually benefit biodiversity. This is most evident in the bird life of the cities.
This is a book about the modern urban history of birds and the importance of humans to the bird fauna and its change. It is about the development of the parks around the turn of the last century, about the birds of the waterways and ponds, but also about the bird life in the stone desert and in the gardens. Birds in the city is a cultural-historical and cultural-zoological elucidation of an exciting environment that concerns everyone who lives in cities. Ingvar Svanberg has written several books about human relationships and ideas about plants and animals. Roger Gyllin is an active bird watcher and prolific writer in the ornithological press, but also a Swedish Slavologist and professor emeritus at Uppsala University.
