Gillotta (TM)s thorough yet clear writing style continues to keep
Entomology near the top of the class as a text for senior
undergraduates, and for graduate students and professionals seeking
an introduction to specific entomological topics. The authora (TM)s
long-held belief that an introductory entomology course should
present a balanced treatment of the subject is reflected in the
continued arrangement of the book in four sections: Evolution and
Diversity, Anatomy and Physiology, Reproduction and Development,
and Ecology. For the third edition, all chapters have been updated.
This includes not only the addition of new information and concepts
but also the reduction or exclusion of material no longer
considered "mainstream," so as to keep the book at a reasonable
size.
Based on exciting discoveries made during the previous decade,
the topics of insect evolutionary relationships, semiochemicals,
gas exchange, immune responses (including those of parasites and
parasitoids), flight, and the management of pests have received
particular attention in the preparation of the third edition.
Overall, more than 30 new or significantly revised figures have
been incorporated.
