Pesticide Chemistry and Bioscience: The FoodEnvironment
Challenge.
Edited by G. T. Brooks and T. R.
Roberts. Hardcover, 1999, ix + pp. 1438. Special Publication
No. 233, ISBN 0-85404-709-3.
Pesticide
chemistry has seen many remarkable changes and advances in recent
years. Further challenges must be faced to advance the field, and
this book, produced as a result of the 9th
IUPAC International Congress of Pesticide
Chemistry (held in London 27 August 1998) and written by leading
international experts, reports on the need to produce high-quality
food while satisfying environmental concerns. Including new material
on natural products, chemical synthesis, mode of action, metabolism,
resistance, regulation, and risk assessment, Pesticide Chemistry
and Bioscience updates all of the key areas in pesticide chemistry
and related activities. Together, the contents outline the revolution
in approaches to crop protection and in our abilities to develop complex,
environmentally acceptable strategies for weed, pest, and disease
control.
This collection of current expert views and findings will be of immense
interest to researchers and professionals working in the field of
pesticide chemistry. To order, contact Sales and Customer Care, The
