This enchanting book is a highly entertaining exploration of the myriad ways insects have enriched our lives-culturally, economically, and aesthetically. Entomologist and writer Gilbert Waldbauer describes in loving, colorful detail how many of the valuable products insects have given us are made, how they were discovered, and how they have been used through time and across cultures. Along the way, he takes us on a captivating ramble through many far-flung corners of history, mythology, poetry, literature, medicine, ecology, forensics, and more. Enlivened with personal anecdotes from Waldbauer's distinguished career as an entomologist, the book also describes surprising everyday encounters we all experience that were made possible by insects. From butterfly gardens and fly-fishing to insects as jewelry and sex pheromones, this is an eye-opening ode to the wonder of insects that illuminates our extraordinary and essential relationship with the natural world. 606 $aBeneficial insects 610 $aaesthetic influence. 610 $aanklets. 610 $abaubles. 610 $abeeswax. 610 $abracelets. 610 $abugs. 610 $abutterfly gardens. 610 $acandles. 610 $acultural influence. 610 $adyeing cloth. 610 $aecology. 610 $aeconomic influence. 610 $aengaging. 610 $aentertaining. 610 $aentomology. 610 $aflora and fauna. 610 $afly fishing. 610 $aforensics. 610 $ahistorical. 610 $ahistory. 610 $aink. 610 $ainsect performers. 610 $ainsect pets. 610 $ainsects. 610 $ajewelry. 610 $aliterature. 610 $amedicine. 610 $amythology. 610 $anatural world. 610 $anature. 610 $apaper and ink. 610 $apoetry. 610 $aretrospective. 610 $asealing wax. 610 $asex pheromones. 610 $ashellac. 610 $asilk. 610 $avaluable products. 615 0$aBeneficial insects. 676 $a595.7/163 700 $aWaldbauer$b Gilbert$01474214 701 $aNardi$b James B.$f1948-$01127009 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910791581003321 996 $aFireflies, honey, and silk$93846345 997 $aUNINA
