Product Description

Review

This book includes more than 70 selections from the best and most entertaining writing penned about insects. It captures the entire range of our preoccupation with insects, from timeless passages from the Bible, Aristotle and 19th-century naturalists to the lyrical appreciations of famed poets, novelists and essayists; from the groundbreaking discoveries of 20th-century scientists to the observations of cutting-edge thinkers such as techno-guru, "Wired" magazine founder and longtime beekeeper Kevin Kelley; from hilariously hyperbolic science fiction screenplays to classic cartoons.


Product Description

Collection of unusual, dramatic and revealing writings about insects ranging through history from biblical times to today. Each selection is introduced and annotated with anecdotes and information about the writer and subject of the piece.
