520    This book presents the current approaches for insect pest 
       control as a "green" alternative to classical and more 
       toxaic agrochemicals. An overview of the recent advances 
       in insecticide chemistry is also included, which will be 
       of interest to a vast group of researchers - agrochemists,
       biochemists, chemists and toxicologists. The combination 
       of both chemical and toxicological aspects of insecticides
       is unique and the book includes contributions from 
       synthetic chemists, entomologists, environmentalists and 
       toxicologists giving it wide appeal. Throughout the book, 
       the different approaches that involve "greener chemicals" 
       are emphasized. The book is divided into 9 chapters, each 
       considering the state of art of each family of 
       insecticides, together with future expectations. Each 
       chapter gives a description of useful biorational 
       insecticides, highlighting environmentally-friendly 
       processes and then the mode of action is fully-described, 
       emphasizing selectivity towards targeted species. Finally,
       for every family of compounds, their environmental effects
       (toxicity, bioaccumulation and metabolism) is considered, 
       comparing them to classical insecticides, including human 
       and environmental risk assessments. In addition the 
       formulation, dispersal and persistence in the environment 
       are covered as key aspects in developing greener 
       agrochemicals. The book also includes a general 
       introduction to entomology, with special emphasis on those
       insects that act as vectors in the spread of diseases. 
       Insects that may be potential pests against humans and 
       livestock are included, focusing on their life cycles, and
       physiology, as a logical comprehension of mode of action 
       of insecticides. In addition there is a chapter on 
       classical insecticides (covering both, approaches prior to
       the chemical era, and classical chemical insecticides, 
       organochlorinated, organophosphorus, and carbamates) for 
       comparison with current trends in pest control. The 
       negative environmental effects that such insecticides have
       caused in nature, such as poisonings, bioaccumulation or 
       toxic effects are highlighted. It is hoped that the use of
       more specific agrochemicals and approaches may avoid, or 
       at least considerably reduce such severe and irreversible 
       effects in nature. The insecticides covered are considered
       from numerous points of views: chemistry, toxicological 
       profile, risk assessment, legal status, environmental 
       behaviour and selectivity. The most important families of 
       currently used insecticides are covered and critical 
       discussions about future perspectives are included with 
       frequent comparisons to classical insecticides.
