Moffett, "the Indiana Jones of entomology," takes us around the globe on a strange and colorful journey in search of the hidden world of ants. In tales from Nigeria, Indonesia, the Amazon, Australia, California, and elsewhere, Moffett recounts his entomological exploits and provides fascinating details on how ants live and how they dominate their ecosystems through strikingly human behaviors, yet at a different scale and a faster tempo. Moffett's spectacular close-up photographs shrink us down to size, so that we can observe ants in familiar roles; warriors, builders, big-game hunters, and slave owners. We find them creating marketplaces and assembly lines and dealing with issues we think of as uniquely human-including hygiene, recycling, and warfare. Adventures among Ants introduces some of the world's most awe-inspiring species and offers a startling new perspective on the limits of our own perception.? Ants are world-class road builders, handling traffic problems on thoroughfares that dwarf our highway systems in their complexity? Ants with the largest societies often deploy complicated military tactics? Some ants have evolved from hunter-gatherers into farmers, domesticating other insects and growing crops for food 606 $aAnts$xBehavior 606 $aAnt communities 606 $aAnts$xEcology 615 0$aAnts$xBehavior. 615 0$aAnt communities. 615 0$aAnts$xEcology. 676 $a595.79/615 700 $aMoffett$b Mark W$0788410 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457934703321 996 $aAdventures among ants$92460808 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01346nam a22002771i 4500 001 991000912069707536 005 20021105144934.0 008 021105s1981 gw |||||||||||||||||ger 035 $ab12072904-39ule_inst 035 $aARCHE-016270$9ExL 040 $aDip.to Filologia Ling. e Lett.$bita$cA.t.i.
