Dire che sono soddisfatto è poco
"This small-format book is packed with facts, oddities, and revelations. Author Dino Ticli is a geologist, high school science teacher, and a capable author in disseminating these fields of knowledge. This book introduces plants and animals selected for their dangerous and disgust-inducing qualities. The result is an unusual compendium of ingenious creatures from the plant and animal realms, including the spitting spider and Bombardier beetle, strangler figs, strangleweed, and the terrible castor bean, along with many others. The volume contains these creatures’ scientific and familiar names, their habitat ranges, exact descriptions, interesting information, stories – including tales regarding their origins – and is accompanied by pictures expressing the precise, meticulous, and visually beautiful illustrations of Andrea Antinori. He is an illustrator passionately dedicated to the world of nature".
