Insect Intelligence: A study of insect art and design for the real world is a 21st century speculative adaptation of Insect Manufacture, originally published in 1847 by R. Clay, Printer, London. This new edition contains original drawings and text as well as updated writing, images, and organization. The 1847 version was by written by an unknown scholar for the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge.
The book is a comprehensive guide to the various products and materials that can be obtained from insect artists and designers and considers how we may draw upon their knowledge to improve our lives today.

Overall, Insect Intelligence is a fascinating and informative book that provides a unique insight into the world of insect-based products.
