Description
A glorious insight into the remarkable work of spiders, featuring eight pages of foil stamping. Despite their familiarity, spider webs are drastically under-appreciated, and yet without them, the world as we know it would be overrun by insects (spiders catch and consume 800 million tonnes of insects every year – roughly the same weight as all the humans in the world). Because spider webs are so successfully hidden, very little is known about these beautiful but deadly traps. From classic orb webs, to spectacular tent webs, hidden trapdoor webs and water webs that attach to the surface of a flowing river, ‘The Secret World of Spider Webs’ reveals the incredibly diverse ways spiders catch their prey.
