The story of the fly and how it could save the world will take you
behind the pesky reputation and inside the brain and body of the
much misunderstood fly. It investigates the insect as a pest and
how man has tried (tirelessly, often unsuccessfully) to kill it -
exploring everything from how it walks on ceilings to how it
survives Ice Ages and outsmarts all manner of fly swats, toxins and
traps. The book also reveals how, throughout history, innovative
humans - including Napoleon Bonaparte's surgeon, NASA, various
forensic entomologists and the UK National Health Services - have
harnessed and researched the fly to help mankind. But ultimately it
introduces the fly as a future hero that could help save the world.
How? By recycling waste nutrients and generating sustainable
protein to spare the fish in the ocean and feed the ever-growing
number of people on our Earth. That's a story worth telling. And
one worth reading, too.
