Items related to Chemistry of Insecticides and Fungicides
Synopsis
This book is the direct result of a number of requests, made to me several years ago, that I offer a graduate course dealing with the chemistry of insecticides and fungicides. These requests came from chemists and biochemists who felt that the courses then available did not stress sufficiently this rapidly growing field of chemical endeavor, and from economic entomologists and plant pathologists who were of the opinion that their attempts to control insects and plant diseases would be facilitated by a better understanding of the chemistry of those products used as insecticides and fungicides. - Donald E.H.
