Seller's Description:
Fine in Fine- jacket. 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall. 312 pages, illustrated with 50 b&w plates and 72 line drawings. the author "provides in this book a simple and coherent introduction to the subject, giving it a unity that is absent from the existing textbooks. He puts the insects into perspective as a natural group of animals, showing how they differ from their nearest relatives and how the natural orders of insects progress from the ancient and primitive bristletails to advanced groups of relatively recent evolution such as the bees, wasps, and ants. Emphasizing evolution and natural history, Oldroyd looks at the insects as complete living organisms in relation to their physical enviroment and the world in which they live."
