The wonderful world of fireflies


I just finished reading Silent Sparks, a beautiful book about fireflies, borrowed from a visiting American friend. In Silent Sparks, noted biologist and firefly expert Sara Lewis walks us through the fascinating world of fireflies and gives us an update about latest discoveries .The book is profusely illustrated. Sara Lewis is a professor in the Department of Biology at Tufts University.
