Review Quotes:
"...concern for the stability of insect populations worldwide has been a research focus of ecological and biodiversity entomologists for the past 25 years. This remarkable volume documents the activity of these scientists. Its diversity of topics is extensive, as one might expect in a text with more than 100 contributors...The stated goal is to provide "a practical handbook that will help guide conservation practitioners in finding solutions." The volume accomplishes this goal. This text will serve as a primary reference in the field for many years and will be found in all libraries around the world that have significant entomology and biodiversity/conservation holdings. Summing Up: Essential. Advanced undergraduates through faculty.
