商品簡介
Venom brings readers face to face with some of the most dangerous creatures on the planet, including jellyfish, snakes, and wasps, as it uncovers the story of venom and poison. The book explores the differences between venom and poison, and how each is used for predation, defense, competition, and communication by an incredible diversity of species. It examines the unique methods that these species have evolved to create and deliver their deadly toxins. Using fossil record and DNA analyses, the book traces venom back to its origin in early jellyfish and sea anemones, and reveals how the use of venom has spread through a variety of animal groups since that time. And finally, it examines the relationships between these dangerous creatures and humans. Humans have not only learned to live with them, but also to benefit from them: scientists increasingly are harnessing the power of venom to create new drugs, treatments, and vaccines.
