"Students wanting a single book to give them the whole picture need look no further ... Since receiving The Insects I have referred to it daily, my other standby reference texts meriting only an occasional glance. It is an extremely well written and thoroughly up-to-date text, amply and clearly illustrated with magnificent black-and-white drawings." (Review of the first edition in Nature)
