Eat Grub
Entomophagy - eating insects - is hardly a new phenomenon. We've eaten bugs for centuries, and many countries around the world continue to enjoy them in modern cuisine. But insect eating is currently experiencing a rise in popularity. Restaurants are dishing up insects, the UN is publishing reports on the merits of insect-heavy diets and the Nordic Food Lab is exploring how delicious insects can be. The media is now talking about the ethics, the eco benefits and the economic sense behind incorporating entomophagy into our lives. This book by the founders of Grub - a company which sells and promotes edible insects - features 55 accessible recipes using a variety of bugs, from grasshoppers to mealworms. It takes its inspiration from cuisines around the word to present a range of small plates, meals, desserts and even cocktails using whole and ground insects. It explores where edible insects come from, how they're farmed and how to grill, pruree, grind and bake them.
Buzzkill
The praying mantis is the only animal on Earth with one ear—and it’s in the middle of its chest. Aphids are born pregnant. Moths can’t fly during an earthquake. If you didn’t know these things, you soon will. Packed full of jaw-dropping facts, Buzzkill presents the big picture on bugs. You might think ew, gross. Insects are icky. Or scary. Or dangerous. They can be. But there’s so much more you need to know. Insects play a critical role on our planet, from sustenance to pollination to medicines and more. Brenna Maloney tackles both the wacky and weird, as well as threats to insects and their habitats, their possible extinction, and ways that everyday people, like you, can prevent their decline. Find out what all the buzz is about! Godwin Books A JUNIOR LIBRARY GUILD GOLD STANDARD TITLE
Insekten essen
Insekten essen - wieso das denn? Die Antwort lautet: Weil sie eine proteinreiche Nahrung sind, deren Produktion obendrein umwelt- und klimafreundlich ist und weil es die halbe Welt macht. In der EU sind Lebensmittel mit Insekten mittlerweile zugelassen, der Landeanflug auf die Regale der Supermärkte hat begonnen. Das Buch des Ernährungswissenschaftlers Florian J. Schweigert über ein Nahrungsmittel der Zukunft steckt voller Wissen über historische und exotische Essgewohnheiten, über die Herstellung von Honig, über das Leben der Insekten und ihre Verwendung in der Heilkunde. Und am Schluss gibt es sogar einige bewährte Rezepte - mit Insekten.
Frost: That Was The Life That Was
Sir David Frost was the only person to have met and interviewed every British Prime Minister since Harold Wilson as well as seven Presidents of the United States. With unparalleled, authorised access to David’s family and friends, in this book Neil Hegarty documents how he became the most successful TV host in the world, his work defining the mood of the moment. Frost didn’t just report the news, he made the news.
Deep Country
Neil Ansell spent five years living between the back of beyond and the middle of nowhere, on his own, with no electricity, gas or water and effectively only the wildlife around him for company. His dilapidated cottage, rented for �100 per year, is so exposed to the elements that it appears to rain uphill, and so remote that you can walk for twenty miles west without seeing a single other dwelling. As the years pass he feels himself dissolving into, and becoming, just another part of the landscape.

The Vituperation of Dr Derek Ramsbottom
We all like to play innocent. But no one is innocent. No one. So does that make us all guilty? Probably. A fatal car accident in a residential area close to a large, red-brick university. To the Emergency Services, a simple case of a skint, carefree and doped student running out of fuel at a busy junction. But why do five ostensibly decent, upstanding and intelligent people, who are primary witnesses to the accident, walk away from the scene? How could two of them, who knew the victim well, turn their backs and disappear into the night? This is a crude and abrasive journey into the world of education, in which knowledge and intellect lead not to a greater understanding of the world around us, but to a deeper frustration at the absence of meaning in our existence. Education is pointless. Love is pointless. Existence is pointless. Words are pointless. This book... is pointless. And Dr Derek Ramsbottom is but an innocent bystander-literally and figuratively. Well... not quite.
