It is not the latest edition of the book, but we knew that when we purchased it. This edition provides enough information for beginning entomology.

A great advanced text on insects

(Four and a half stars) Although this is a fairly technical college text I recommend it to everyone with more than a passing interest in entomology. The author goes into great detail into the subject and yet with a little work anyone should be able to make it through this text. Do not be intimidated by the jargon as one will eventaully become familair with it.The illustrations are very helpful. Aquatic and juvenile insects are not neglected here as they are so often in other texts. So many children have a passing interest in entomology. Speaking from personal experience as a child for a long time after memorizing one of the Zim guides from cover to cover I thought I knew all that needed to be known about insects. A parent aware of one's child's intellectual development should know when it is time to give their kids more advanced books. There are certainly books that bridge the gap between the Zim guides ad this boo k (The Peterson Field Guide to Insects for example)and although I certainly do not recommend this book for a child the ambitious young adult should be able to get a lot out of this book.
