From the reviews: "Provides an overview of biological control systems and is a useful summary chapter with a realistic appraisal of various approaches. ... Overall, it has been edited competently ... . 'the challenge for this book is how far the editors and chapters' authors have achieved the objective of reviewing the biological control theme from new perspective'. On a superficial level of the book achieves this objective. ... This book is 'thought provoking', in that it indicates ways forward that might enhance use of biological control agents." (Roland N. Perry, Nematology, Vol. 14 (1), 2012)
