As an allergist-immunologist, I see many patients who seek evaluation for conditions thought to be related to insect stings or bites. This book is an especially useful compendium of the typical and atypical responses to these insects and other arthropods, and the entomology is a great help for those who are distant from college zoology courses. This text has come of age at a time when it is needed most. It will especially be valued by health care providers who find themselves in unknown territory, both geographically and medically. - From the Foreword Richard D. deShazo, M.D. University of Mississippi Medical Center
