From the Back Cover

With backgrounds in weed science, nematology/plant pathology, and entomology, Norris, Caswell-Chen, and Kogan have created a truly integrated, interdisciplinary approach to learning about pest management.

This first edition text presents the basic principles of integrated pest management as they apply to plant pathogens, weeds, nematodes, mollusks, arthropods, and vertebrates. It reinforces the wisdom and soundness of the integrated pest management (IPM) approach to crop protection, which attempts to limit the deleterious effects of pests in ways that are environmentally, economically, and socially acceptable.

Concepts in Integrated Peat Management offers the following benefits:

• Integration of information on all plant protection disciplines with a comparative approach
• Provides the reader with a realistic view of the world, which is not fragmented along disciplinary boundaries and shows the interdependence of all organisms in a crop ecosystem Case histories and practical examples
• Provides support for text information, bringing that information to life in meaningful, applied way
• Up-to-date with the latest technologies in the field
• Includes controversial topics that are useful for class discussions
