The essential guide to insect behaviour, perfect for the inquisitive gardener or nature lover

This stunningly illustrated guide puts a wealth of fascinating behaviours under the microscope – from elegant displays of courtship to brutal acts of predation. Along the way, Ross Piper charts the evolution of insects and reveals everything you need to know about how they nest, feed, reproduce and defend themselves. He concludes by discussing the impact of the human world on insects, and what we can do to prevent their decline in numbers.
Featuring a wealth of breathtaking colour photos, illustrations and graphics and drawing on the latest research on insect behaviour, Piper explores both exotic insects and those you will find in your own back garden.
