Ants are small, secretive, easily overlooked and usually misunderstood. Yet these seemingly puny insects have superpowers that make them some of the most important organisms on the planet - what they lack in size and individual strength they more than make up for in sheer numbers and sophisticated, coordinated activity. In this book, entomologist Richard Jones takes us into the heart of the colony, revealing ants' complex nesting behaviours, their foraging strategies, their interactions with each other and with other species (including ourselves), and their influence on the landscape. Clearly written and thoroughly entertaining, this is an extraordinary insight into all things ant. Book jacket.
