“Bekoff's encyclopedia is a tremendous achievement, rivaled only by Bernhard Grzimek's Grzimek's Encyclopedia of Ethology (CH, Mar'78), the last attempt to publish an encyclopedia of this scope....Scope goes beyond the traditional umbrella of behavioral ecology and sociobiology to include extensive coverage of such topics as animal welfare, animal conservation, and careers in animal behavior. This will be the standard reference for years to come. Essential. All college and university libraries.”–Choice
“Not since Grzimek's Encyclopedia of Ethology (1977), which is still in print, has such an authoritative and comprehensive encyclopedia on the subject been attempted....[t]his work will no doubt become the standard reference book on the subject. Strongly recommended for all academic collections and larger public libraries. This endlessly fascinating set is a seminal work in its field.”–Library Journal
