'The structure of this important new book differs in several respects, acknowledging the advances that have been made in integrated crop management and the trends towards the more rational use of pesticides.inAs well as comprehensive details of pest and disease management strategies, each chapter also includes a classification scheme for the cited pests and diseases.\nThis volume will definitely serve not only as an excellent reference material but also as a practical guide for teachers, research workers, students and plant pathologists as well.'
