This book is for students, professionals, and anyone wishing to learn the basics of biological control. It covers strategies for controlling invertebrates and vertebrates, weeds, and plant pathogens using a diversity of agents, as well as discussing the environmental safety and sustainability of biological control.

Ann E. Hajek is a Professor in the Department of Entomology at Cornell University, New York. Her career has focused on biological control, with research ranging from developing biopesticides to investigating why epizootics of insect diseases occur. The International Organization for Biological Control, Nearctic Regional Section, presented her with their Distinguished Scientist Award in 2011.
