A comprehensive (and humorous) review of how humans manage conflict with wildlife and the natural world.
Incredibly fascinating, with Roach's unique voice.

vlreid's review against another edition

This is the first book that I have read by author Mary Roach. I have to say that when she sets out of research a book, she throws herself into it! I don't read a lot of non-fiction books, but her style of narrative non-fiction is incredibly captivating. Plus she's got a real sense of humor which frequently comes through, making serious subjects much more light-hearted. Even her footnotes are a lot of fun -- don't skip them! Our book club discussion was very interesting.
