Cambridge, MA: Belknap Press/ Harvard University Press, 1990.

First edition of this Pulitzer Prize-winning work. Quarto, original cloth, illustrated throughout. Signed by Edward O. Wilson on the title page, who has also drawn an ant. Near fine in a near fine dust jacket with light shelfwear, inscription to the half-title page.

This landmark work, the distillation of a lifetime of research by the world's leading myrmecologists, is a thoroughgoing survey of one of the largest and most diverse groups of animals on the planet. Hölldobler and Wilson review in exhaustive detail virtually all topics in the anatomy, physiology, social organization, ecology, and natural history of the ants. In large format, with almost a thousand line drawings, photographs, and paintings, it is one of the most visually rich and all-encompassing views of any group of organisms on earth. It will be welcomed both as an introduction to the subject and as an encyclopedia reference for researchers in entomology, ecology, and sociobiology.
