Synopsis
The gossamer wings of a dragonfly, the scarlet carapace of the lady beetle, the spectacular shape of the hawkmoth. The insect world teems with exotic forms and inspired renowned devotion in illustrators of the late 19th century. In a volume as jewel-like as its subject, The Anatomy of Insects & Spiders presents page after page of select engravings, woodcuts, and drawings from the Victorian era, the golden age of insect illustration. Meticulously rendered, they are paired with observations from early naturalists. The notes may describe the classification of the insect, how its body is constructed, its behavior and preferences, or its habitat. Arranged by insect type and covering all the families from bees and moths to ants and flies, The Anatomy of Insects & Spiders reveals detail that is normally seen only under a microscope. A natural for admirers of insect society, this charming volume is both a distinctive introduction and lively armchair companion., The gossamer wings of a dragonfly, the scarlet carapace of the lady beetle, the spectacular shape of the hawkmoth.

  • Horrible book, don't waste your time to buy.

    The title reads anatomy..., but someone should hand the writer a dictionary, because this book does not deal with anatomy at all. It only has stretches of random insects per each page, with a paragraph or two of highly useless opinions of someone else book, or collected stories people shared with the writer of this book. I once google something on the internet, that said bees had intestines. I said that they are not flying humans. So I wanted a book on the "antamony" of of insect to see what the bees looked like on the inside. Well, I have not gained an answer from this useless book. This book, thoroughly sucks.
