Query: full of promise, but ultimately dull

The subject matter is fascinating, but I found this (rather slim) book very dry and dull. As another reviewer noted, it's not really a book about ants or ant society in general; it's the story of Prof. Gordon's research into one particular *kind* of ant, told in the first person.A brief web search turned up more interesting information in a minute or two than I found in the whole of the book; Sorry, but don't waste your money.
