Synopsis
An introduction to the fascinating world of the insect, how the insect develops to maturity and some of its major responses to its environment and to other organisms, including the human. Clear, detailed text and examples will enhance the comprehension of those who are unfamiliar with insects and entomological terms, and the well-developed format explains the insect plan -- from the adaptations of the individual insect to its interactions with other organisms and its physical environment -- without going through the classical taxonomic approach.
