The first complete popular science guide in Russian, dedicated to the extinct and probably extinct Late Quaternary birds of the world. For each of the 525 species included in the book are given ranges; actual evidence of the existence, including, if present, photographs of stuffed animals, carcasses and bone remains; time and causes of the alleged extinction. For the most well-studied species, information is given about various aspects of their lifestyle and relationship with humans, as well as color images and direct quotes from the works of contemporaries.
The author of the book Pavel Alekseevich Smirnov is an ornithologist, an employee of the Zoological Museum of Moscow State University. The book is intended for a wide range of readers and aims to give an idea of the scale of the current extinction within the bird class.
