Description
The Jewel Box: A naturalist's journey into the world of moths reveals a hidden landscape of intricate relationships and surprising insights. By studying the diversity of moths, ecologist Tim Blackburn sheds light on the workings of all nature.
From the tiny, yet remarkable, Silver Y, to the majestic, yet enigmatic, Goat Moth, Blackburn's observations offer a glimpse into the complex web of life that surrounds us. By examining the relationships between moths and their environments, Blackburn demonstrates how the contents of one small box can illuminate the workings of all nature.
