Descriere magazin:
A New York Times Notable Book A stunningly original exploration of the ties that bind us to the beautiful, ancient, astoundingly accomplished, largely unknown, and unfathomably different species with whom we share the world. For as long as humans have existed, insects have been our constant companions. Yet we hardly know them, not even the ones we\'re closest to: those that eat our food, share our beds, and live in our homes. Organizing his book alphabetically,
Hugh Raffles weaves together brief vignettes, meditations, and extended essays, taking the reader on a mesmerizing exploration of history and science, anthropology and travel, economics, philosophy, and popular culture.
Insectopedia shows us how insects have triggered our obsessions, stirred our passions, and beguiled our imaginations. About the Author
