Based on a symposium sponsored by the Board on Agriculture, this comprehensive book explores the problem of pesticide resistance, suggests new approaches to monitor, control, or prevent resistance, and identifies the changes in public policy necessary to protect crops and human health from the ravages of pests. The volume synthesizes the most recent information from a wide range of disciplines, including entomology, genetics, plant pathology, biochemistry, economics, and public policy. It also suggests research avenues that would indicate how to counter future problems. A glossary provides the reader with additional guidance.
