Book Synopsis Natural History and Evolution of Paper-wasps by : Stefano Turillazzi
Book excerpt: The diversity of social behaviour among birds and primates is surpassed only by members of the Hymenopteran insects (bees, ants, and wasps). The paper-wasps are a large and varied group, and have been studied extensively by a wide range of biologists interested in the evolution of sociality. This book is unusual in combining synthetic reviews and new, unpublished data with original ideas.
