For the love of insects

Arguably, the weakest part of the book is the referencing, with a very strong bias in some sections to the authors' own works and almost no recognition of several important and fundamental works of others in the same field.This is especially so in the case of citrus.An electronic link to an extensive literature base would have been appropriate in this age of such linkages, and perhaps can still be included, not just of the pests but also of the natural enemies.These criticisms aside, this book is a masterful piece of work, and Gerhard Prinsloo and Vivienne Uys have succeeded without doubt in producing a fine reference work that will remain the standard for many years to come.
