"...a welcome addition to the literature on plant pathology, and is highly recommended to anyone with an interest in this area of study." -G.J. Boland, University of Guelph, in AGRICULTURE, ECOSYSTEMS & ENVIRONMENT "...the addition of color has dramatically enhanced the clarity of photos and diagrams....The book's past reputation as the plant pathology "bible" is definitely enhanced." - PLANT SCIENCE All students should be familiar with this book and it should be a part of their educational experience. - Patrick E. Lipps, Ohio State University There is no single volume which matches Agrios' text for breadth of topics and detail of coverage. - Jeanne D. Mihail, University of Missouri Praise for the previous edition: "...a classic textbook embracing the whole of plant pathology....I recommend this book highly for teaching and reference." - EXPERIMENTAL AGRICULTURE, "...the addition of color has dramatically enhanced the clarity of photos and diagrams....The book's past reputation as the plant pathology "bible" is definitely enhanced." - PLANT SCIENCE All students should be familiar with this book and it should be a part of their educational experience. - Patrick E.

Mihail, University of Missouri Praise for the previous edition: "...a classic textbook embracing the whole of plant pathology....I recommend this book highly for teaching and reference." - EXPERIMENTAL AGRICULTURE, Plant Pathology by George Agrios is a comprehensive treatise for those within or coming into this field. The fifth edition is partially built on the compilations of the previous editions, however, like following Dorothy from the black and white of Kansas to the color land of Oz, the addition of color has dramatically enhanced the clarity of photos and diagrams. This change is important for correctly identifying the plant disease symptoms. The photos, diagrams and text can be understood by readers ranging from master gardeners to basic researchers. The book's past reputation as the plant pathology bible is definitely enhanced and the price remains reasonable...With this book as a text, no excuse remains for a poorly taught plant pathology course.- Lee Hadwiger for PLANT SCIENCEThis has become a very comprehensive book that every plant pathologist should have for reference. All students should be familiar with this book and it should be a part of their educational experience. - Patrick E. Lipps, Ohio State UniversityAgrios text is the standard introductory work for the discipline of plant pathology.

Mihail, University of MissouriPraise for the previous edition:...a classic textbook embracing the whole of plant pathology, ideal for undergraduate courses and for those associated with research and practice of applied plant pathology in all climatic regions. The new, larger format and extensive use of high quality illustrations (including colour plates) and the widespread use of annotated flow diagrams to show pathogen life cycles, the gene-for-gene concept, forecasting of epidemics and procedures for isolation and culture of pathogens are all exceedingly well done.
