We have added some new features on www.nhbs.com which provide you with more information about our books, DVD’s and other products while you are browsing and searching the site.
Images
There are now multiple images for many books – we’ve scanned inside most top-selling titles where we feel extra images will help you make a decision about the artwork, plates or maps in the book you’re considering. Where it might be useful, we’ll also scan the back of the book. Books like Beneath the Surface have excellent artwork on the jacket, but seeing samples of the stunning illustrations inside make it much easier to decide whether you want to buy the book.
For wildlife equipment such as Nest Box Camera Kits, we are including images of the product in use together with additional information on accessories. The pages for the Nest Box Camera Kits also include sample video footage obtained from these kits.
Contents
We also added a contents tab to some of our book pages – we’ll be putting this in whenever we can get it electronically in advance of publication.
Reviews
NHBS staff are busy reading Nature, New Scientist, Science, Scientific American, BBC Wildlife and dozens of other journals and magazines on your behalf to pick out reviews of key titles. Not all natural history titles get reviews but where they do, and if we spot them – we’ll put them up on the site.
Author Bio
Sometimes we can add a short author biography – we’ll do this when a decent source is available.
Future Developments
It would be very interesting to hear whether you would like to read and contribute Customer Reviews to www.nhbs.com – it’s a feature we are thinking about. Please do leave comments via the blog or drop us an email.
