The Soul of the White Ant - Eugène Marais

Description

'The Soul of the White Ant' by Eugène Marais is a remarkable study of termites and their extraordinarily complex social organisation. Drawing on his observations of termite colonies in the South African veld, Marais explores their collective behaviour, communication and apparent intelligence. He uses the white ant colony as a starting point for broader reflections on society, instinct and the relationship between individual and collective life. A fascinating classic for readers interested in Eugène Marais, natural history, animal behaviour and the mysteries of the natural world.
