Summary
A collection of essays focusing on the notion that all ecosystems composed of different plant and animal species are like bricks in a building, where the position and stability depend on the food and defense relationships
Amazon.com description: Product Description: With the background of a scholar and the enthusiasm of a child, Gibbons explores the many pieces that support our environment such as caterpillar disguises, the origins of tumbleweeds, and fish that produce their own antifreeze. With compelling anecdotes and witty narrative, he celebrates the beauty of biodiversity and laments those that have become extinct.
