The Wonders of Instinct: Chapters in the Psychology of Insects

'The Wonders of Instinct: Chapters in the Psychology of Insects' is a whimsical yet scientifically accurate book about the habits of insects—a study of insect behavior. Instead of writing it in a dry, clinical manner; the author, Jean-Henri Fabre, chose to write it through a first-person perspective, best described as a written form of the modern-style narrated-nature documentary. For his contributions in the field of entomology, the study of insects, he is considered by many to be the father of modern entomology.
