Description:
Insects inhabit an often unseen world, pursuing strange, tiny, and astonishingly full lives far beyond our wildest imaginings. From the dawn of the written word, humans have recorded their fascination with insects, from Aristotle, the world's first "biologist, " to the journals of the nineteenth-century naturalists, to the hyperbolic and highly entertaining science fiction screenplays of the twentieth century. Insect Lives delightfully captures the entire range of our insect preoccupation. This eclectic and absorbing anthology of hard science, thrilling discoveries, and (outlandish tales features everything from the Bible to Dave Barry, from Henry David Thoreau to Charles Darwin.
