The Hidden World: How Insects Sustain Life on Earth Today and Will Shape Our Lives Tomorrow

Book Cover Type:
- Hardcover
Insects conquered the Earth long before we did and will remain here long after we’re gone.
They outnumber us in the billions and are essential to many of the natural processes that keep us alive and that we take for granted.
Yet, despite this, very few of us know much about the hidden world of insects.
In this fascinating new book, entomologist and broadcaster George McGavin takes a deep dive to reveal the unknown truths about the most successful and enduring animal group the world has ever seen, and to show the unseen effects this vast population has on our planet, if only we care to look.
McGavin explores not only the incredible traits that insects have evolved to possess, such as dragonflies that can fly across oceans without resting or beetles that lay their eggs exclusively in corpses, but also the vital lessons we have learnt from them, including how therapy using maggots can save lives and how bees can help grow rich tomato yields.
The Hidden World reveals the wonderful complexity of our relationship with insects, how they have changed the course of our history and how, if we continue to learn from them, they could even be the key to our future and survival.

Philosophycally written and well researched book about most mysterious subject in neuro science

My interest in data science, machine learning and AI brought me to Pak Manifesto's website. This is a great book (and although I haven't read all of it) it basically underlines the importance of having a deep intuitive understanding of probability and being able to glean information from minute details in order to fine-tune one's predictions (about anything). The data on which such predictions are based, it quantity, breadth, depth and quality are all important, as is the broader canvas of knowledge surrounding the problem at hand.
My pleasure in purchasing this book was doubled for two reasons. I got to know Mr. Riaz, the owner of Pak Manifesto who is a gentleman to the core, always keen to support his customers and provide them with the best experience. And secondly, when I received the book vide TCS, I found out that its a Penguin original paperback with superb quality paper and illustrations (though not in colour, just black, grey and white).
This book is a must read for any statistics and/or data science student or even a professional. Highly recommended from my side!
