Popular natural history periodicals in the nineteenth century had an incredible democratizing power. By welcoming contributions from correspondents regardless of their background, they posed a significant threat to those who considered themselves to be gatekeepers of elite science, and who in turn used their own periodicals to shape more exclusive communities. Making Entomologists reassesses the landscape of science participation in the nineteenth century, offering a more nuanced analysis of the supposed amateur-professional divide that resonates with the rise of citizen science today. Matthew Wale reveals how an increase in popular natural history periodicals during the nineteenth century was instrumental in shaping not only the life sciences and the field of entomology but also scientific communities that otherwise could not have existed. These publications enabled many actors—from wealthy gentlemen of science to working-class naturalists—to participate more fully within an extended network of fellow practitioners and, crucially, imagine themselves as part of a wider community. Women were also active participants in these groups, although in far smaller numbers than men. Although periodicals of the nineteenth century have received considerable scholarly attention, this study focuses specifically on the journals and magazines devoted to natural history.

This study is facilitated by following economic entomologists' and ecologists' changing ideas about different pest control strategies, chiefly 'chemical', 'biological', and 'integrated' control. The author then follows the efforts of one specific group of entomologists, at the University of California, over three generations from their advocacy of 'biological' controls in the 1930s and 40s, through their shifting attention to the development of an 'integrated pest management' in the context of 'big biology' during the 1970s.

Ten years in the life of a young New Zealander in the Forest Service - he's physically tough, untutored but keen to get ahead - bring about an amazing metamorphosis. The Technical Trainee of the early pages is barely recognisable as the double-degreed professional entomologist - the 'bug man' - who emerges in statu imaginis at the end of 1954. Adventures and dangers lie in wait along the trees to bees trail for the budding academic - and they're not all winged or four-legged! This delightfully written autobiographical 'slice' shows how gutsy determination and two inspirational texts took the author to his chosen speciality and an international career. Born in Ruawai, Tom White grew up in Hawera. After his time in the NZ Forest Service as a Technical Trainee, he was a Forest Entomologist at the FRI in Rotorua. From there he went to the University of Adelaide in South Australia and was a Senior Lecturer in Zoology before going to the University of the South Pacific as Professor of Biology. From there he returned to Australia as Dean of Applied Science at Charles Sturt University. He has also lectured and researched in Britain, the USA, South Africa, China and Italy, and is now an Hon. Research Fellow at the Waite Institute of the University of Adelaide. He is the author of ecological research papers and two books, but this is his first venture outside the world of scientific writing.

"Eleanor Ormerod, LL. D., Economic Entomologist : Autobiography and Correspondence" by Eleanor Ormerod gives readers both inside and outside of the entomology field an interesting look into the life of one of the most prominent historical figures in the field. In fact, without her contributions, the definition of entomology would likely look much different. Her love for her work is palpable in her descriptions in this book to the point that even readers with no prior interest in the study might find themselves intrigued by the prospect of studying it.

Frank Eugene Lutz became an entomologist at a time when this science was still new. He was one of the first to set up experiments in the study of heredity using the common fruit fly. In his many field trips he observed unusual insects in their natural habitats and brought back thousands of valuable specimens. As curator of the Department of Entomology at the American Museum of Natural History, he was responsible for innovations in labeling and museum display. His observations of more than one thousand species found in his own back yard were the basis for his classic book, Lots of Insects. He set up the first nature trail in America; devising museum exhibits in natural outdoor settings. This first biography of one of the great American entomologists is filled with all the excitement that is to be found in the strange and infinite world of insects. Here is the fascinating story of Dr. Lutz’s career along with a series of natured projects you can do at home that will help you observe insect behavior for yourself. Projects include: Bringing Insects to You, The Hows of Collecting, and Preserving and Mounting. While we already know much about insect life, much, much more remains to be learned. Even the amateur entomologist can make a contribution to science through their own research!
