À propos de l'auteur
Dr George McGavin is an academic entomologist, television presenter and author of numerous books. With several insect species named in his honour, he is one of the UK's foremost entomologists and leading authorities on the natural world. Over the years he has travelled from tropical forests and savannahs to caves in the pursuit of various insects. After leaving Oxford University, where he taught for 25 years, George became a broadcaster, presenting many documentaries such as Oak Tree: Nature's Greatest Surviour, The Secret Life of Landfill: A Rubbish History, and multi-award-winning After Life: The Strange Science of Decay.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. 'George McGavin is a rarity.' Sir David AttenboroughInsects conquered Earth long before we did and will remain long after we're gone. Outnumbering us in the billions, they are essential to life as we know it, helping to maintain many of the natural processes that we take for granted. Taking a deep dive into the unknown truths of the most successful and enduring animal group the world has ever seen, entomologist and broadcaster George McGavin explores not only the incredible traits that insects have evolved, such as dragonflies that can fly across oceans without rest and beetles that lay their eggs exclusively in corpses, but also the vital lessons that we have learnt from them and how they continue to help us grow as a society. The Hidden World reveals the unseen effects this weird and wonderful population has on our planet, if only we care to look. 'Crawling with detail, glowing with extraordinary facts and rich with humour and personality.'
