Cuckoos and cowbirds are amongst the select bird groups renowned as professional parasites, who always lay their eggs in the nests of other species,
and this book describes the natural histories of all the brood parasites and examines the exciting questions they raise about the evolution of
cheating and the arms race between parasites and their hosts. With illustrations by David Quinn.
