Mother Nature is Trying to Kill You: A Lively Tour Through the Dark Side of the Natural World by Dan Riskin is a fun exploration which reveals the fascinating, weird, often perverted ways that Mother Nature fends only for herself. It may be a wonderful world, but as Dan Riskin explains, it’s also a dangerous, disturbing, and disgusting one. At every turn, it seems, living things are trying to eat us, poison us, use our bodies as their homes, or have us spread their eggs.
