From the Author

Everything about the animal so many of us love to loathe.
The Compleat Cockroach has been well received-- by entomologists and non-scientists alike. New Scientist magazine called it "consistently readable and nicely illustrated," noting that "the book shows that Gordon-- like roaches-- has stayed up nights, tracking down every roach reference." "This book is so comprehensive (and witty) that you will quickly become a veritable cockroach expert... I recommend it without hesitation," wrote Gary Dunn, education director of the Young Entomologists' Society. You can learn more about the book (including a schedule of upcoming appearances at zoos and museums around the U.S.) by visiting the book's web page-- http://www.olympus.net/dggordon/roaches.htm. Enjoy!
