These two volumes are timely and appropriate in this post-genomic era because of the rapid pace of change brought about by genome projects, functional genomics, and genetics (omics technologies). The volumes show the rich history and strong tradition of cutting-edge research using invertebrates that has opened up our broader understanding of comparative endocrinology and the evolution of regulatory pathways and systems. These reviews set the scene and context for this exciting new era of understanding that has come from this post-genomic revolution. This book undertakes the daunting task of covering most of the diverse endocrine systems that exist among invertebrates. The papers in this book will advance our knowledge of invertebrate endocrinology but also of endocrinology in general, making the book valuable to researchers and students. Key features: Looks at the enormous diversity of species involved and the variety of hormonal pathways covers the diverse endocrine systems that exist among invertebrates makes relevant comparisons of molecular, cellular, and behavioral aspects of invertebrate endocrinology Explores the molecular genetics techniques are now allowing exploitation of these genomes through specific interference with genes, and thereby interference with their phenotypic expression”-- Provided by publisher.

About the Editors Saber Saleuddin, PhD Saber Saleuddin, PhD, is a University Professor Emeritus in the Department of Biology, York University in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. He received his early education in Bangladesh and his doctorate from the University of Reading in the UK. His studies on biomineralization in mollusks started at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, Canada, and continued at Duke University, Durham, North Carolina, in the laboratory of Karl Wilbur. Though offered a teaching position at Duke University, he accepted a faculty position at York University, where he still teaches. His outstanding contributions in teaching, research, and administration were recognized by York University. He has published extensively in international journals and has co-edited five books on molluscan physiology. He served as co-editor of the Canadian Journal of Zoology for 18 years and was president of the Canadian Society of Zoologists, from whom he received a Distinguished Service Medal. Angela B. Lange, PhD Angela B. Lange, PhD, is a world leader in the field of insect neuroendocri- nology, with over 175 research publications and numerous invited research talks at international and national conferences. Professor Lange also demon- strates leadership in the research community, being a Council Member of the North American Society of Comparative Endocrinology, the European Society of Comparative Endocrinologists, and the International Federation of Comparative Endocrinology Societies. In addition to her international stature in research, Professor Lange was Chair of the Department of Biology, Acting Vice-Principal and Dean, and is currently Vice-Dean, Faculty, at the University of Toronto Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. She obtained her BSc and PhD degrees from York University, Canada. Ian Orchard, DSc, PhD Ian Orchard, DSc, PhD, is a Professor Emeritus, Biology, of the University of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. An expert in insect neuroendocrinology with over 200 research publications, Professor Orchard has been funded by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Council of Canada since 1980, has chaired the About the Editors viii NSERC Animal Physiology Grant Selection Committee, and has presented numerous invited keynote and plenary research talks at international conferences. Professor Orchard served as a Vice President of the University of Toronto and Principal of the University of Toronto Mississauga (2002– 2010) and Vice President Academic and Provost, University of Waterloo (2014–2017), Canada.
