Rats: you have to loathe them if you're a city dweller; yet author Robdert Sullivan does just the opposite: he spent a year investigating a rat-infested alley just a few blocks from wall street, getting to know its habits, the efforts of exterminators, and others involved in the wild city rat's life. Rats: Observations On The History & Habitat Of The City's Most Unwanted Inhabitants provides a witty yet scientific review of the urban rat, from issues of plague and garbage to seasonal changes in its habits.
