[null,null,null,"Sommario/riassunto","Which fungus is as sensitive to light as the human eye? What are the myths and facts about the ozone hole, tanning, skin cancer, and sunscreens? What is the effect of light on butterfly copulation? This entertaining collection of essays explores how various organisms-including archaebacteria, slime molds, fungi, plants, insects, and humans-sense and respond to sunlight.The essays in Peter A. Ensminger's book cover vision, photosynthesis, and phototropism, as well as such unusual topics as the reason why light causes beer to develop a \"skunky\" odor. He introduces us to the kinds of eyes that have evolved in different animals, including those in a species of "]

The book will be treasured by anyone interested in the wonders of biology."]
