<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><i>Microbial Control of Insect and Mite Pests: From Theory to Practice</i> is an important source of information on microbial control agents and their implementation in a variety of crops and their use against medical and veterinary vector insects, in urban homes and other structures, in turf and lawns, and in rangeland and forests. </p> <p>This comprehensive and enduring resource on entomopathogens and microbial control additionally functions as a supplementary text to courses in insect pathology, biological control, and integrated pest management. It gives regulators and producers up-to-date information to support their efforts to facilitate and adopt this sustainable method of pest management.</p> <p>Authors include an international cadre of experts from academia, government research agencies, technical representatives of companies that produce microbial pesticides, agricultural extension agents with hands on microbial control experience in agriculture and forestry, and other professionals working in public health and urban entomology.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>The quality of the writing appears to be good throughout, the most important subjects seem to be well covered, and the references are extensive and useful in all chapters...This modestly priced, sturdily produced, and commendable volume deftly amplifies (but cannot replace) the content of the comparatively few textbooks of insect or invertebrate pathology. <b>--The Quarterly Review of Biology</b></p><br>
