Publisher's Synopsis
'Small Game Hunter' takes the reader through many encounters with invertebrates that the author has had over the course of his career and around the globe. From a fascination with moths and light traps to chasing the elegance of damsel- and dragonflies. From his special interest with the complex world of spiders to insect farming as a future food for a growing human population. But 'Small Game Hunter' is not just about science, it also ranges across the arts from puppet plays to opera, dance to visual art. It is a cultural and scientific kaleidoscope, but one which always has invertebrates at its focus. At a time when invertebrates around the globe are in sharp decline, this book is a rallying call to appreciate and conserve the small things that run our world.
