A Spider’s World Senses and Behavior

From the reviews:

"Thanks to Professor Friedrich G. Barth, his numerous co-workers and students we have astonishing details about the sensorial world and behaviour of these large neotropical spiders … . even a non-arachnologist will find the text easily understandable and instructive. … The book is richly illustrated with numerous line drawings, diagrams and photographs and also contains 16 magnificent colour plates. Professor Barth’s monograph is a very useful book for all students of arthropod sensory physiology and behaviour." (J. Žd’árek, European Journal of Entomology, Vol. 99, 2002)

"This excellent book, written with authority and charm, is a scientific odyssey into the sensory world of spiders. … The book is very well produced, with a well laid-out text supported by numerous figures and photographs … . One of this great book’s many attractions is the way that the text involves the reader … . This highly readable and informative book will provide a valuable reference for researchers, students and teachers … as well as an essential addition to any arachnological bookshelf."
