Has anyone read or purchased the (relatively) new book, "Zookeeping: An introduction to the science and technology" by Mark Irwin, John Stoner and Aaron Cobaugh? If so, what do my fellow zoochatters think of it? It looks a comprehensive treatment of the subject, but it commands a hefty price tag. I am seriously thinking of buying it to add to my personal library of zoo books, but the price of over £65 is more than a little off-putting, to put it mildly, and I'm not sure I can justify spending that sort of money. Currently it has just one review on Amazon, and that a negative, one-star, review. But of course one mustn't judge a book on the strength of one review alone. What does everybody else think? Is it a worthwhile purchase?

I have actually met Dr. Irwin when visiting the college he works at. He is very intelligent in the field of zoo keeping and zoo technology, I would recommend the boom, it may be pricey but he definitely knows his stuff.
