Trade Review
"Chapters are well designed to provide the best available information on ecological engineering today and the book includes a detailed consideration of the possible positive and negative interactions with genetically engineered crops....

This book is, therefore, welcome and timely." -- Maurizio G. Paoletti, University of Padova * Journal of Sustainable Agriculture *
