Underbug : an obsessive tale of termites and technology / Lisa Margonelli ; illustrations by Thomas Shahan. by Margonelli, Lisa. author., Shahan, Thomas, illustrator. London : Oneworld Publications, 2018. Description:  303 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm Summary:  With all due respect to bees, the termite stands as the world's most important insect. Without termites much of life on Earth would essentially evaporate. And yet an individual termite is practically invisible, not to mention wholly reviled by humanity. For Lisa Margonelli, what begins as a bugtastic obsession becomes an exploration of our future. If we can harness the termite's remarkable ability to remake its environment, will that help us avoid a global food crisis? If we create killer robobugs, what happens if the swarms run off script? A masterpiece of popular science, Underbug touches on everything from metaphysical meditation, technological innovation and the psychology of obsession to good old-fashioned biology.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   Calmar Campus Library Circulation Stacks (Calmar) 595.736 Mar 2018 Checked In Add Copy to MyList Format: HTMLPlain textDelimited Subject:   Email to:
