In this book internationally known experts provide a comprehensive
view of current knowledge of social insect biology including much
previously unpublished information. Particular emphasis is given to
the relationships between social insects and humans; sections are
devoted to economically important social insects, pollination,
foraging, and the role of insects in ecosystems and agroecosystems.
The authors also discuss communication, behavior and caste within
insect colonies. A special section focuses on the neurobiology of
social insects. A series of papers considers the presocial insects,
which live in family groups but without caste differences. Also
well represented are the fields of sociobiology and the origins and
evolution of social behavior. The book will be valuable to
agricultural scientists as well as to entomologists,
sociobiologists, ecologists, ethologists, and natural historians.
Endocrinologists and neurobiologists will also find important new
material.
