I need a book on bats?

Question

I need to find a good book on bats, its a gift for someone, so it has a few criteria. First, I don't want a child's book. It needs to be well written on an academic level (not to technical though). It basically needs to have good scientific facts, but not so detailed that its a pain to read.
Second, it needs to have a lot of good color photographs. Actually if the book was nothing but really good photographs it would work, but photos and text are prefered.
Please don't just post a link to google books (unless it is a link to a specific book). I want specifics, not search engines.

Since its publication in 1988, America's Neighborhood Bats has changed the way we look at bats by underscoring their harmless and beneficial nature. In this revised edition, Merlin Tuttle offers bat aficionados the most up-to-date bat facts, including a wealth of new information on attracting bats and building bat houses and a revamped key to the identification of common North American species. The easy-to-understand text, clear illustrations, and spectacular color photographs make this the perfect bat book for the general reader, as well as an invaluable resource for professionals who field questions from the public. Those who provide advice at health and animal control departments, museums, zoos, and nature centers will find it especially useful.
