Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dialogues on Entomology: In Which the Forms and Habits of Insects Are Familiarly Explained There are several popular works on this subject already before the public, but none of them coincide with' the above design. Kirby and Spence's In traduction is highly pleasing and sa tisfactory book, but' far beyond the com prehension of the little students for whom this publication is intended. Mrs. Wakefield's'letters form a useful compendium, but, perhaps, too dry and cursory for the volatile minds of children. And in Joyce's odialogues on the Micro scope, the descriptions are necessarily confined to these examples which suited his purpose.

Book excerpt: "First and only edition of this illustrated Victorian guide to insects for children, sympathetically rebound in the style of early nineteenth-century vernacular cloth bindings. Quaker entomologist Mary Townsend structures the book as a friendly conversation between an aunt and her young nieces, extended over twenty evenings, covering insects from the familiar ant, bee, and cricket to the more spectacular butterflies and fireflies: 'the ingenious little insects which are almost every where to be found ... too apt to be overlooked, or carelessly, and often cruelly, trodden under foot.' Making frequent reference to the microscope, the narrator emphasizes the daily wonders of creation: 'instead of feeling inclined to pass by any object because it is common, you should, on that very account, be disposed to examine it more closely.'" -- Antiquarian bookseller's description, 2018.

Book Synopsis Thoreau's Vision of Insects & the Origins of American Entomology by : David Spooner
Download or read book Thoreau's Vision of Insects & the Origins of American Entomology written by David Spooner and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thoreau`s Vision of Insects and the Origins of American Entomology is, as the title suggests, an account of Thoreau`s observations of insects in America and the place of insects in his creative work. It is the first full interpretation of insects in his writing.To identify many of the insects in Thoreau, I draw on my entomological background in lepidopteral conservation, and experience as adviser to a number of agencies promoting habitats including the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, as well as membership of the National Bio-diversity Committee for Scotland. The book also contains a comprehensive list of insects indispensable to all students of Thoreau. As Rachel Carson wrote: "the insect world is nature`s most astonishing phenomenon. Nothing is impossible to it; the most improbable things occur there." The insects inhabited the planet millennia before ourselves, and are uniquely adapted to it. Thoreau quotes Coleridge in his Literary Notebook to the effect that "the insect world, taken at large, appears as an intenser life that has struggled itself loose & become emancipated from vegetation." The key word is intenser, and as the winged creature at the end of Walden may suggest, the dramatic intensity suggested by metamorphosis - and a writer is continually transforming elements from real life -is the source of a great wonder about life on earth. My other theoretical and critical books also explore this theme in other contexts. They are The Metaphysics of Insect Life (1995) and The Poem and the Insect: Aspects of Twentieth Century Hispanic Culture (1999), both obtainable from the University Press of America. Here now is a section of my new book, Thoreau`s Vision of Insects and the Origins of American Entomology: "THE METAMORPHOSES OF WALDEN In 1848 Thoreau transcribed sections of Coleridge`s Hints towards the Formation of a More Comprehensive Theory of Life which had just been published. At the same time he made a copy of Spenser`s Muiopotmos or the Fate of the Butterflie, where the life of the insects is viewed by the reader from as great a distance as the Olympians look down upon humanity, akin to that doublet Thoreau identified in his own character watching his active self (134-35). Coleridge`s Hints is "a treatise on the use of natural history as means to the discovery of underlying laws of creation" and was an essential literary starting-point for Thoreau`s more technical exploration of what is today cladistics. Walls argues in opposition to Robert Sattelmeyer and Richard A. Hocks that at this point Coleridge merely offered Thoreau "the solace of the familiar," and offered him "nothing new," but as she admits the extracts he made from her preferred influence, Humboldt, "are far more perfunctory." As already mentioned, for Coleridge, had nature progressed no further than the flora and fauna, "the whole vegetable, together with the whole insect creation, would have formed within themselves an entire and independent system of life." He draws on Heinrich Steffens (1773-1845) for the adage "THE INSECT WORLD IS THE EXPONENT OF IRRITABILITY, AS THE VEGETABLE IS OF REPRODUCTION." What Coleridge crucially provided Thoreau with was the encouragement, even perhaps in terms of authorial authority, the right, to merge a scientific approach to nature with his kaleidoscopic imaginative sweep over the living ecology of Walden. William Ellery Channing, poet and a walking companion, gives an indication of the day-to-day life of the writer in his Concord habitat: "Insects were fascinating [to Thoreau], from the first gray little moth, the perla, born in February`s deceitful glare, and the `fuzzy gnats` that people the gay sunbeams, to the luxuriating Vanessa antiopa, that gorgeous purple-velvet butterfly somewhat wrecked amid November`s champaign breakers. He sought for and had honey-bees in the close spathe of marsh-cabbage, when the eye could detect no opening of the same; water-bugs, skaters, carrion beet

Download or read book The Science Education of American Girls written by Kim Tolley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Science Education of American Girls provides a comparative analysis of the science education of adolescent boys and girls, and analyzes the evolution of girls' scientific interests from the antebellum era through the twentieth century. Kim Tolley expands the understanding of the structural and cultural obstacles that emerged to transform what, in the early nineteenth century, was regarded as a "girl's subject." As the form and content of pre-college science education developed, Tolley argues, direct competition between the sexes increased. Subsequently, the cultural construction of science as a male subject limited access and opportunity for girls.

Book Synopsis Contemporary Insect Diagnostics by : Timothy J. Gibb
Download or read book Contemporary Insect Diagnostics written by Timothy J. Gibb and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2014-10-27 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary Insect Diagnostics aids entomologists as they negotiate the expectations and potential dangers of the practice. It provides the reader with methods for networking with regulatory agencies, expert laboratories, first detectors, survey specialists, legal and health professionals, landscape managers, crop scouts, farmers and the lay public. This enables the practitioner and advanced student to understand and work within this network, critically important in a time when each submission takes on its own specific set of expectations and potential ramifications. Insect diagnosticians must be knowledgeable on pests that affect human health, stored foods, agriculture, structures, as well as human comfort and the enjoyment of life. The identification and protection of the environment and the non-target animals (especially beneficial insects) in that environment is also considered a part of insect diagnostics. Additionally, Integrated Pest Management recommendations must include any of a variety of management tactics if they are to be effective and sustainable. This greatly needed foundational information covers the current principles of applied insect diagnostics. It serves as a quick study for those who are called upon to provide diagnostics, as well as a helpful reference for those already in the trenches. - Includes useful case studies to teach specific points in insect diagnostics - Provides problem-solving guidance and recommendations for insect identification, threat potential, and management tactics, while accounting for the varying needs of the affected population or client - Contains numerous color photos that enhance both applicability and visual appeal, together with accompanying write-ups of the common pests
Book Synopsis Insect Pathology by : Yoshinori Tanada
Download or read book Insect Pathology written by Yoshinori Tanada and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 681 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Insect Pathology is designed for a broad spectrum of readers. Is should be useful to students, lecturers, and researchers requiring information about the principles in insect pathology and the biology of pathogens. It should serve as a resource for specialists to learn about other insect pathogen systems, for generalists to become aware of advances in insect pathology, and for scientists and students, beginning or otherwise, interested in learning about insect pathology. This book was originally intended to update the 1949 test by E. A. Steinhaus entitled Principles of Insect Pathology. The purpose for this book was twofold: To serve (1) as a text for an insect pathology and/or biological control class and (2) as a comprehensive reference source. Because this book summarizes much of the available information, its usefulness as a textbook for an insect pathology class is apparent. Although the literature citations are extensive, they are far from complete. The literature in insect pathology is voluminous and for the past decade has been expanding at an almost exponential rate. A complete review of the literature is beyond the scope of the book, and an omission of a reference does not preclude its importance. Our citations, however, should serve as a good starting point for those who wish to obtain further information. We have attempted to cover equally all subdisciplines, but shortcomings are unavoidable. For these, we take full responsibility.
