Recommended by Yoji Yoro! "The fascinating world of insects, introduced by a promising young entomologist. Insects do it all!" Romance, war, slavery, symbiosis... Survival strategies of tiny creatures. Exploring the ecology of the most diverse creatures on Earth. Almost everything we humans do, and the societies and civilizations we've built, insects have already done first. From hunting and gathering, agriculture, animal husbandry, and architecture, to war, slavery, and symbiosis, they've anticipated it all. Especially interesting is their reproductive behavior. They use all sorts of tactics to meet a mate, including gifts, homosexuality, chastity belts, infanticide, and cloning. This brilliant researcher reveals the amazing lives of these small creatures, overturning our tendency to look down on them! Munetoshi Maruyama Born in 1974. Ph.D. in Agricultural Science. Assistant Professor at the Kyushu University Museum. Graduated from the Graduate School of Agricultural Science, Hokkaido University. After working as a researcher at the National Museum of Nature and Science and the Field Museum of Natural History (Chicago), he has held his current position since 2008. His specialty is elucidating the diversity of insects that live in symbiosis with ants and termites, and he is a leading expert in Asia. He conducts insect surveys both domestically and internationally every year, discovering numerous new species and publishing them in many papers.
