Over the past 40 years, the SIP meetings have played a central role in the development of the field of insect-plant relationships, providing both a show-case for current research as well as a forum for the airing and development of influential new ideas. The 10th symposium, held 4-10 July 1998, in Oxford, followed that tradition. The present volume includes a representative selection of fully refereed papers from the meeting, plus a listing of the titles of all presentations. The volume includes reviews of major areas within the subject, along with detailed experimental studies. Topics covered include central neural and chemosensory bases of host plant recognition, integrative studies of insect behaviour, tritrophic interactions, plant defences, insect life histories, plant growth responses, microbial partners in insect-plant associations, and genetic bases of host plant associations. The book provides a key source for students and research workers in the field of insect-plant relationships.

Since the identification of insect pheromones in the late 1950s, attention has often focused on the use of these potent behavior-modifying chemicals as pest control agents. Much of this interest has concentrated on Lepidoptera, particularly moths. In addressing this topic in other insect orders, this multi-author book fills this current gap in the literature. It presents research from leading authorities on the most important insect groups, and details the current progress of research in these areas. Applications of the research to agricultural systems around the world, and possible mechanisms for sustainable crop protection, are considered. This book is essential reading for students and researchers in entomology and crop protection.

Fire-up your swing with the hottest new technique to hit the fairway!

If your shots are off target and your swing needs improving, you simply won't find a better fix than the powerful breakthrough techniques of Jim Hardy. Jim's smash bestseller, "The Plane Truth for Golfers," introduced the revolutionary one-plane and two-plane swings to golfers and teaching pros around the world. It changed how players think about golf and how the game is taught.

In this exciting master class follow-up, he takes your swing to the next level, giving you in-depth instruction in how to execute both of these swings perfectly for on-target shots every time.

Jim shows you how to: Assume the proper stance and posture for each style Position and move your hips, shoulders, and torso correctly "Feel" the difference when you correct the faults in your swing Gain proficiency in your swing with detailed drills for both styles

He begins by giving you a review of the basics, outlining the one-plane and two-plane swings as he emphasizes his most crucial lesson: " All swings are either one- or two-plane actions, and to become good at golf you must work towards being a fundamental purist, only learning and employing those elements relative to your swing type." With Jim's guidance, you'll first determine which swing type is right for you, then master your specialized swing. It's a powerful feeling when your body and arms are moving in total coordination with the club, and it can only happen once you master the art of the swing.

Improve your swing with the teacher the pros trust:

"(Jim Hardy) was the one person who really had the greatest influence on me in terms of my teaching. Jim hadsuch an incredible mind for the game of golf."
--From "The Only Golf Lesson You'll Ever Need" by Hank Haney, Tiger Woods' golf coach

"Jim Hardy is the most knowledgeable teacher in golf. No other instructor has his understanding of golf swing techniques and what makes them work."
--Peter Jacobsen, Champions Tour player and winner of seven PGA Tour championships

"Jim Hardy's theories and explanation of the two distinct swing planes used in golf are perhaps the most important instructional book any golfer could ever own."
--"Inside Golf"

" In my book, Jim Hardy is at the top. His information is the best. His presentation is logical and unique. He has discovered, through original thought, new information that will help every golfer. I have seen it at work and the results are amazing."
--Carol Mann, LPGA Hall of Fame member
