The author of this book wants us to be curious about the lives of insects and to worry about their survival. When did they first appear? How do they mate? How far can they travel? How do they orient themselves? How do they live in society? Are they in danger of extinction?

The survival of human beings depends on the biosphere and its balance, which would not be possible without insects. The Secret Life of Insects is a reminder that we can still know, understand, preserve and protect them.
