"Carefully researched and highly readable book takes an unflinching look at the alarming decline in insect numbers and what this means for both biodiversity and humanity. "Fascinating If its visions are sometimes mournful, there is also something wondrous in Milman's revelation of our fragile dependency on insect life as well as its beauty and strangeness." – Professor Helen Roy, President of the Royal Entomological Society This is both a story of insects and the inspiring people who tirelessly study and conserve them." "This beautifully written book captures the wonders of insects alongside sharing insights about the ways in which passionate and dedicated entomologists around the world gather the information to unravel the complex patterns of change in insect populations. – David Wallace-Wells, bestselling author of The Uninhabitable Earth "A gripping and especially unnerving book: what happens when the bugs go? As Milman deftly illustrates, in the face of die-offs too widespread to closely track, we are rushing headlong into a precarious and uncertain future." In The Insect Crisis, acclaimed journalist Oliver Milman dives into the torrent of recent evidence that suggests this kaleidoscopic group of creatures is suffering the greatest existential crisis in its remarkable 400-million-year history. – Shortlisted for the Wainwright Prize for Conservation Writing The Insect Crisis, The Fall of the Tiny Empires that Run the World by Oliver Milman 9781838951177 Booktopia Books > Non-Fiction > Earth Sciences & Environment > The Environment Book eBook 15.94 The Insect Crisis The Fall of the Tiny Empires that Run the World By: Oliver Milman 0.
