The book is structured into three parts, starting with an introduction to the fundamental concepts of insect invasions, including key terms and pathways of dispersal. It progresses to analyze the impact of these invaders on diverse ecosystems, using case studies like the emerald ash borer to illustrate ecological and economic consequences.
Finally, it focuses on prevention and management strategies, emphasizing the need for international cooperation and proactive measures to mitigate the destructive impacts of invasive insect species. This book uniquely synthesizes information from diverse regions, offering a broad perspective on the issue. By connecting the science to economics, political science, and climatology, Insect Invaders provides a comprehensive understanding of the challenges and strategies needed for effective biosecurity, pest management, and conservation biology. It serves as a valuable resource for students, researchers, policymakers, and anyone concerned with environmental science and ecosystem stability.
