From the reviews of the second edition: "I would recommend this book for four groups. The first is advanced undergraduate students and postgraduate students starting a research project a? . The second group are teachers of advanced courses a? . A third group a? people like me who need their minda's broadening a? . The fourth group are the least accessible audience a? agricultural advisors a? . It will be a valuable addition to the personal library of crop pathologists and will be inspiring for molecular pathologists a? ." (David B. Collinge, European Journal of Plant Pathology, Vol. 116, 2006), From the reviews of the second edition: "This second edition contains updated and new contributed chapters in the same format as the first edition ... . The topics covered understandably have a strong United Kingdom flavour, but several chapters deal with widely applicable principles and are illustrated by examples from several countries. Although plant disease epidemiology relies heavily on quantitative methods, most chapters in this book are written without a strongly mathematical slant, which will make the book attractive to the many students and researchers who are not mathematically inclined." (Rob Beresford, Plant Pathology, 2006), From the reviews of the second edition:This second edition contains updated and new contributed chapters in the same format as the first edition â€¦ . The topics covered understandably have a strong United Kingdom flavour, but several chapters deal with widely applicable principles and are illustrated by examples from several countries. Although plant disease epidemiology relies heavily on quantitative methods, most chapters in this book are written without a strongly mathematical slant, which will make the book attractive to the many students and researchers who are not mathematically inclined.
