Author Bio
Dr Skinner did not develop his interest in biology until doing a degree in chemistry at university. This was translated into an interest in the insect world, the most abundant single group in nature. After carrying out research at Lancaster University on the interactions of Red Wood Ants with their environment he entered the teaching profession.
