Insects affect the health and well-being of humans every day,
everywhere, so the entomology departments that study them make a
crucial contribution to many aspects of life, Indeed, agricultural
success in the United States and other countries depends upon the
work of entomology departments within the land grant system at
universities across the nation. ""Entomology at the Land Grant
University"" is a thorough look at how entomology departments have
adapted to shifting demographics, changes in land use patterns,
environmental issues, and advances in the life sciences. With
world-renowned contributors from both academia and industry, this
volume is the culmination of a series of mini-symposia celebrating
the 100th anniversary of the Department of Entomology at Texas
A&M University. It addresses topics such as roles of entomology
departments, the function of the extension service, the global
reach of entomological research, genetic engineering, and future
innovations in pest management and insecticide design. This
insightful look into the workings of a university department within
the context of a rapidly changing scientific, social, and economic
climate will appeal to anyone associated with a land grant
university, extension or regulatory agency, or related industry.
