Studying these systems provides insights into a wide range of ecological, evolutionary, and behavioral questions including the genetics of behavior, phenotypic plasticity, chemical communication, and the evolution of life-history traits. This accessible text offers a new approach that provides the reader with the necessary theoretical and conceptual foundations, at different hierarchical levels, to understand insect behavior. The book is divided into three main sections: mechanisms, ecological and evolutionary consequences, and applied issues. The final section places the preceding chapters within a framework of current threats to human survival - climate change, disease, and food security - before providing suggestions and insights as to how we can utilize an understanding of insect behavior to control and\/or ameliorate them. Each chapter provides a concise, authoritative review of the conceptual, theoretical, and\u003cbr\u003emethodological foundations of each topic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlex Cordoba-Aguilar, \u003cem\u003eUniversidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico\u003c\/em\u003e, Daniel Gonzalez-Tokman, \u003cem\u003eInstituto de Ecologia, Mexico\u003c\/em\u003e, Isaac Gonzalez-Santoyo, \u003cem\u003eUniversidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAlex Cordoba-Aguilar completed his PhD at Sheffield University and has been a researcher at the Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico since 2003. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDaniel Gonzalez-Tokman did his doctoral studies at the Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico and has been a researcher at the Instituto de Ecologia, A.
