"Another modern-day genius, like E.O. Wilson and long-time friends. Although I think he brags a little about himself in this book (who doesn't in their autobiography) I love it anyway. He has done some very interesting research!"
"A little more autobiographical than I realized, the books focuses on Eisener's research through the years. Full of fascinating stories of insect biology."
"I am loving this book! It is about insects, which I think are cool, but it's more like the story of the scientest as a person and what really thrilled him. If you like books like A Moveable Feast, or Travel's With Charley, or other 'journey' books, try this one. (I just skim through the chemistry charts...)"
