In this book you will read about devastating pests; very nasty parasites; a lizard that squirts blood from its eyes; a centipede that catches bats; a farting beetle; venomous snakes; a microscopic animal that eats your brain, and of very brave people who used themselves to further the knowledge and understanding of diseases. Although over two million different species of living things have been listed, and millions more to be discovered most are harmless to humans, but some are very horrible indeed, and not only cause disease and infections, but can also cause serious economic damage.

Autorenporträt
Arnold Lawson, a retired teacher, was head of biology and head of the science faculty in a large comprehensive school in Sheffield. From an early age and living on the edge of the English Lake District with its outstanding landscapes and diversity of flora and fauna, he has always had an interest in natural history. This interest has taken him from the forests of New Zealand to the Amazon jungle of Brazil. His other interests include gardening, fellwalking and landscape photography.
