520    Intrepid international explorer, biologist, and 
       photographer Mark W. Moffett, "the Indiana Jones of 
       entomology," takes us around the globe on a strange and 
       colorful journey in search of the hidden world of ants. In
       tales from Nigeria, Indonesia, the Amazon, Australia, 
       California, and elsewhere, Moffett recounts his 
       entomological exploits and provides fascinating details on
       how ants live and how they dominate their ecosystems 
       through strikingly human behaviors, yet at a different 
       scale and a faster tempo. Moffett's spectacular close-up 
       photographs shrink us down to size, so that we can 
       observe.
