Synopsis:

Rat : How the World's Most Notorious Rodent Clawed Its Way To the Top

Synopsis: Given food, time, and freedom from predators, a rat can spawn over 100,000 offspring in just one year!Rats are found in virtually every corner of the populated world, and their numbers are ever-increasing - always adapting and outwitting attempts to wipe them out."Rat" is an intelligent, enlightening, and engaging exploration of the history, myth, physiology, habits, and psyche of the rat - from its origins in the swamps of Southeast Asia, through its role in the spread of the Black Death in the Middle Ages, to its unshakable niche in the modern urban world.This fascinating volume combines biology with history, and social commentary with first-hand experience to dispel the myths and expose the little-known facts about the ubiquitous rodent.
