This volume deals mainly with the biology of the American
cockroach, Periplaneta americana (1.). Contributors were urged to
emphasize recent findings, including unpublished data when
possible, a goal that would not have been feasible if it were not
for the two previously published books on the basic biology of
cockroaches, The Biology o/the Cockroach (1968) by D. M. Guthrie
and A. R. Tindall and The Cockroach, Volume 1 (1968) by P. B.
Cornwell. Those topics not included in The American Cockroach, such
as external morphology, are well covered in the two preceding
books. In addition, these books provided a broad background upon
which contributors to The American Cockroach have been able to
build with recent trends, new and established concepts and
integration. Although this book deals primarily with the American
cockroach, many chapters offer a comparative approach in sections
where the more recent and exciting research has been accomplished
on other species. Most contributors place the cockroach in
perspective with regard to its appropriateness or inappropriateness
for various types of biological investigations. Many questions are
realistically left unanswered when no acceptable or obvious
solution is apparent; an invitation to new researchers to consider
the cockroach as an experimental subject.
