WOW What a great book!
I love this boook!!!!! Its easy to read, yet it goes into enough depth that you really learn about the insects. There's a whole chapter just on fireflies for example. Its the kind of book you can just pick up, read a chapter and say - wow, that's neat. (At least that's what i say) then I'll be outside and I'll be able to see whatever it is that I read about and understand so much more. So basically, the content is fantastic and the writing is so accessible that its not at all intimidating but also not patronizing. Its just very straightforward and so informative. I've learned so much. Its one of my favorite books and I wasn't even that into bugs before this. You won't go wrong with this one!

A bug book for all people.

Howard Ensign Evans combines all the elements of a great writer (by any standard) in his 1966 book, Life on a Little-Known Planet. He has an easy and conversational style as he takes you across time and the globe investigating the secret life of insects.

My day to day contact with cockroaches, crickets, house flies, and dragonflies has become less of an irritation and more an opportunity to explore these ancient creatures. I have read and reread this book whole and in sections always finding Mr. Evans amusing, thought provoking, and readable. As a former elementary teacher, this book worked its way on to the playground and into my classroom replacing fear and disgust with knowledge and respect.

A Must Read for Understanding Authority and Submission
Unfortunately, this book is out of print. Fortunately, it is easily accessible used. This is the best book I've read on authority and submission. When is authority abused? When is it irresponsibly not used? What is submission and why is it important? How do orgnanizations, governments and people in general thrive or die depending on how these two topics are treated? In addition to the concepts, this is a literary work. The author has poured over every sentence and every word. It has a poetic feel to it, written by a skillful wordsmith. Get this Book! Read this book! It will change your life.

Age of Contradiction : American Thought & Culture in the 1960's

Very good resource...
I came across this book while doing a report on an avant-garde musical composer and her work in the 60s and 70s.

I was prepared to be bored by the book, but, after reading the chapter that directly related to my subject matter, I was inspired to read the entire thing. The discussion of subject matter is done in a scholarly style, yet it is not so obtuse as to be confusing to the reader with little prior knowledge about the subject.

If you're interested in the time period's trends and quirks, this book is a definite must!

History of American thought and culture in the 1960s
Age Of Contradiction provides a social history of American thought and culture in the 1960s, revealing research into the intellectual and cultural trends of post-World War II America. From the rise of feminism and black power movements to other ethnic protests, this provides a framework for understanding the events and tensions of the times.
