[Jonathan McWilliams · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book introduces you to the science of bugs without the scientific jargon getting too ridiculous. I learned a lot about insects and I must say they really are incredible. All I can say is thank god we are much bigger than bugs because their methods of survival are truly brutal.
The book was loaded with pictures that supplemented the topics and the pages were short and sweet. I would recommend this science book to anyone who is interested in nature and animals and likes to read minor scientific books in a casual sense. I feel a sparked interest in insects now and may follow up with another bug-book in the future.
