This book is an excellent desktop reference and guide for use in designing, conducting, and analyzing a broad range of bioassays that investigate a wide variety of chemistries and simulated environmental treatments.
Reviews"Bioassays with Arthropods, 3rd Edition, is an excellent book and reference guide for all level of students who are interested in biological sciences and in need of an easy-to-use reference. The best part about this book is that it uses real life examples and talks about all possible scenarios that we encounter when we are new to a specific bioassay. Language is very easy to follow and even motivational for new scientists in the field. In addition, the authors are all accomplished scientists. I have known Moneen Jones for several years now, since our post-doc days at the University of Florida, and she has always displayed a high level of passion and dedication for entomology."- Siddharth Tiwari, PhD, Biology Project Leader, Global Insecticides, BASF Corporation, Research Triangle Park, United StatesBioassays with Arthropods, Third Edition acts as a sort of bible for those who design and conduct bioassays with arthropods and interpret bioassay data. This book is written in a reader-friendly language and explains statistical concepts in simple terms without using much of mathematical symbols. This approach makes it easier for biology students to understand the analysis and interpretation of bioassay data. I used earlier editions of this book as a graduate student to understand interpretations of POLO outputs. In this edition, the authors have included more details in each chapter for readers to understand concepts missing in earlier editions, and added a new chapter on population toxicology. This new edition is a must for anyone interested in design and analysis of arthropod bioassays. I am very much looking forward to the publication of the third edition.-Ashfaq A.
