Hoil Book in Third Edition

"Forest Pathology" by John S. Boyce, now revised and updated for the third edition is still acknowledged as one of the leading texts and reference books for the non-professional, in the study of tree disease, its causes and prevention.

With the exception of new appendices for F'ungicides and A List of Common Names of Plants Used with Scientific Equivalents, the 2l chapters conform to the order of the orevious edition.

"Forest Pathology" is ttnique, states an authority, for "Years of experience in forest pathology as an investigator and teacher have convinced the author that a book on tree disease based on the parts of the tree affected as rvell as on the tree species, with the sequence of diseases caused by pathogens roughly following the life of the tree from the seedling stage to maturity, is the most practical. For those who have received no formal instruction in forest pathology, it is relatively simple to find information in a book on tree diseases based on the part of the tree affected, but if it is necessary to know first the name, or at least the relative taxonomic position of an organism, the search often becomes difficult."

Author John S. Boyce, who is Professor Emeritus of Forest Pathology at Yale University has devoted fifty years to research and teaching in this field. He has traveled extensively in the forests of western Europe studying forest tree diseases and also India, Japan, Australia and New Zealand.

Published by McGraw-Hill Book Company, Inc., New York, "Forest Pathology" sells for $12.50.
