Reseña del libro "Planet of the Ants: The Hidden Worlds and Extraordinary Lives of Earth'S Tiny Conquerors (en Inglés)"
"Beautifully illustrated . . . the book offers a view into parallels between seemingly out-of-this-world ant societies and our own, including cities, an intense work ethic, division of labor, intragroup cooperation combined with genocidal outgroup warfare, even a kind of to-the-death national loyalty. The authors' scientific rigor is matched by their joy in their subjects."--The Wall Street Journal Shortlisted for the 2022 Helen and Kurt Wolff Translator's PrizeThis sweeping portrait of the world's uncontested six-legged conquerors will open your eyes to the secret societies thriving right beneath your feet--and shift your perspective on humanity. The closer you get to ants, the more human they look. Ants build megacities, tend gardens, wage wars, and farm livestock. Ants have flourished since the age of the dinosaurs. There are one million ants for every one of us. Engineered by nature to fulfill their particular roles, ants flawlessly perform a complex symphony of tasks to sustain their colony--seemingly without a conductor--from fearsome army ants, who stage twelve-hour hunting raids where they devour thousands, to gentle leafcutters cooperatively gardening in their peaceful underground kingdoms. Acclaimed biologist Susanne Foitzik has traveled the globe to study these master architects of Earth. Joined by journalist Olaf Fritsche, Foitzik invites readers deep into her world in both the field and the lab. Exploring these insects' tiny yet incredible lives will inspire new respect for ants as a global superpower. Publisher's note: Planet of the Ants was previously published in hardcover as Empire of Ants.
