Authors: Tom Jackson And Michael S. Engel

“Insect Architecture” takes you inside the amazing structures that insects build, from the paper galleries of yellow jacket wasps to elaborate termite mounds complete with royal chambers and air-conditioning systems.

Blending spectacular illustrations with illuminating case studies of representative species from around the world, this is the ultimate guide to insect artistry and innovation.
