With around one million species, insects and their allies are by far the most successful, variable and bizarre group of living [[things]] to have evolved on our planet. Yet much of their [[biology]] continues to remain a [[mystery]]. In this definitive and [[beautiful]]ly written book, Christopher O'Toole has compiled an [[authoritative]] overview of all the world’s terrestrial anthropods. Written by the world’s leading experts in entomology, the accounts are accessible to both scientific and general [[readers]]. Taking each group in turn, from millipedes to mantids and from spiders to scorpions, this volume provides a summary of the current scientific understanding of this fascinating group of animals. Exceptionally illustrated with specially commissioned artwork illuminating the text, this work is the one-stop guide to the host of largely unseen 'mini-beasts' that share our world.
