Hemp is enjoying a worldwide resurgence. This unique book combines a review of the hemp pest and disease literature published over the past 50 years with up-to-date information on modern biological control techniques. Each pest and disease organism is presented in the same format, covering economic impact, geographical and host-plant range, plant symptoms, taxonomic description, life history, and differential diagnosis. Important cultural, mechanical, biological and chemical controls are highlighted with charts, illustrations and explicit instructions. Easy-to-use keys are included for rapid identification of the most common pests. Introductory chapters describe the general principles of plant protection, requirements for healthy plant growth, and taxonomy of parasites and pathogens.

I found my love, a tall golden girl, in the cruel, thousand-angled city that was Tokyo, mid-occupation, death-hungry for Mate Buchanan. I am Buchanan. Mate Buchanan, that is, ex-G.I., court marshal and all, sent to this treacherous town on a mission, literally, of life-or holocaust for the world at large. The golden girl is Sandra Tann, the one they call the Witch of Tokyo. The first time I saw her, three men were trying to burn her to death.
