What I Read in March 2012

Richard Conniff, author of "Every Creeping Thing" and "Spineless Wonders," educates and amuses in Swimming with Piranhas at Feeding Time. The nature writer follows wild dogs in Africa, investigates termites in New Orleans, and yes, swims with piranhas. He visits entomologist Justin O. Schmidt, who has been stung by over 150 different species of insect. That doesn't sound like fun, but this book is.
