Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Critical Thinking: A Student's Introduction provides the skills and
attitudes needed to become a skilled thinker, an effective problem
solver, and a sound decision-maker. Students will learn-step by
step-how to understand complex texts, analyze issues, think
logically, and argue effectively. They will hone the thinking
skills needed to succeed in college, in their career and in life.
It is written to provide a versatile and comprehensive introduction
to critical thinking through a student-centered approach that
covers all the basics of critical thinking-and more-in
reader-friendly language.
Botanists and zoologists have recognized for centuries the
specificity of various insects for plants, and entomolo- gists have
long been aware that insects defend themselves from predators by
emitting repulsive odors. Only recently have chemists and
biologists established a joint endeavor for studying the chemical
relationships between plants and insects. The present symposium
volume of the Phytochemical Society of North America's RECENT
ADVANCES IN PHYTOCHEMISTRY consists of eight papers dealing with
phytochemical relation- ships between plants and their insect
herbivores. The fifteenth P.S.N.A. annual symposium and meeting was
held in August, 1975, on the campus of The University of South
Florida, Tampa. The chemical defenses of apparent and unapparent
plants were contrasted by Feeny. Rodreguiz and Levin illustrated
parallel defense mechanisms of plants and insects and then Hendry,
Kostelc, Hindenlang, Wichmann, Fix and Koreniowski discussed
chemical messengers for both plants and insects. Subsequently Beck
and Reese reviewed plant contributions to insect nutrition and
metabolism. Indepth studies for the monarch butterfly-milkweed
interaction were presented by Roeske, Seiber, Brower, and Moffitt
and for the cotton boll weevil-cotton plant relationship by Hedin,
Thompson, and Gueldner. In the latter portion of the symposium
Rhoades and Cates presented a general theory concerning the
coevolu- tion of insects and plant antiherbivore chemistry.
