Features: Fabre once asked a question: "Is it worth suffering just for survival?" The question of suffering, he answered with his ninety-two years of life: facing "prejudice," accompanied by "poverty," not fearing "sacrifice," "offense," and "forgottenness," all for the sake of that "truth." Pursuing truth, seeking the truth—this is called "seeking truth." Seeking truth is the "Fabre spirit." Never think of it as just a simple popular science booklet. The publication of this book is considered the birth of animal psychology and is hailed as the "epic of insects." A classic work by the famous French entomologist Henri Fabre. The author blends professional knowledge with life insights, narrating in a gentle manner, revealing his unique perspective on life and the world through the descriptions of various insects, their daily habits, and characteristics. This book comes with a DVD. This is a monumental work in entomology completed by the renowned French entomologist Fabre with his life's dedication. He conducted extensive observations and experiments on the species, habits, food, and mating behaviors of insects, recording their instinctual characteristics in a true, detailed, and meticulous manner.
