Super Fly: The Unexpected Lives of the World’s Most Successful Insects

byJonathan Balcombe

In Super Fly, Jonathan Balcombe presents a science narrative centered on the Unexpected Lives of the World’s Most Successful Insects. The book builds its explanation through key episodes, competing interests, and the setting supplied by the connected fields of nature and science. Specific examples keep the larger argument tangible and reveal why familiar explanations do not always account for the full story. Together, these elements make Super Fly an accessible guide to the subject and the questions it continues to raise.
