 flies\, dance flies and the much maligned mosquito\, McAlister describes
  the different types of fly\, their unique and often unusual characteris
 tics\, and the unpredictable nature of their daily life. She travels fro
 m the drawers of wonder at the Natural History Museum\, to piles of poo 
 in Ethiopia\, via underground caves\, smelly latrines and the English co
 untry garden. \n\nShe discovers flies without wings\, rotating genitalia
  and the terrible hairy fly\, while pausing along the way to consider to
 day's key issues of conservation\, taxonomy\, forensic entomology and cl
 imate change. Combining her deep knowledge and love of flies with a wond
 erful knack for storytelling\, Erica McAlister allows us to peer - amaze
 d and captivated - into the secret life of flies\n\nAll welcome!
