An informed and heartfelt tribute to commonly unappreciated plants, insects, and other tiny creatures that reconsiders humanitys relationship to naturePut aside that can of Raid for the short time it takes to read this book.Natural HistoryNamed a Favorite Book of 2020 by The ProgressiveFruit flies, silverfish, dandelions, and crabgrass are the bane of many people and the target of numerous chemical and physical eradication efforts. In this compelling reassessment of the relationship between humans and the natural world, John Hainzean entomologist and former pesticide developerconsiders the fascinating and bizarre history of how these socalled invasive or unwanted pests and weeds have coevolved with humanity and highlights the benefits of a greater respect and moral consideration toward these organisms.With deep insight into the lives of the underappreciated and often reviled creatures that surround us, Hainzes accessible and engaging natural history draws on ethics, religion, and philosophy as he passionately argues that creepy crawlies and unwanted plants deserve both empathy and accommodation as partners dwelling with us on earth.
