About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“This hardcover volume comprises a foreword plus 19 review articles on the ecology of alien arthropod predators and parasitoids. … This book covers its topic in a broad and multifaceted way and some chapters have the potential to become baseline reviews of their respective area. … Overall, the book can be well recommended and appears particularly suited for scientists from related areas to gain a timely overview of the subject.” (Martin H. Entling, Basic and Applied Ecology, Vol. 13 (8), December, 2012)Editors and Affiliations
