THE SUPERORGANISM: The Beauty, Elegance, and Strangeness of Insect Societies
This work chronicles the remarkable growth of knowledge concerning the social insects during the past two decades. It provides a deep look into a part of the living world hitherto glimpsed by only a very few. Combining dramatic passages with a new synthesis of social insects, this work, in a long tradition stretching back to Charles Butler's 1609 Feminine Monarchie, presents the full sweep of the 150 million year history of the social insect in spectacular detail.
