        by Erez Aharoni

        The Eagle's Secret Ido Barnea, an Israeli combat pilot, is flying a routine night flight over the Negev desert when suddenly his reliable Skyhawk jet fighter starts to vibrate uncontrollably and finally crashes, forcing Ido to eject at the last possible second. At that exact moment a young girl in the heart of Brussels is kidnapped. What’s the connection between these two events? Who’s behind them? Accused of betrayal, Ido is forced into a dizzying chase to clear his name. Naama Sharon, a beautiful Mossad agent, is sent after him and the two encounter powerful arms dealers, cynical terrorists, and corrupt army officers.

        This book describes entomopathogenic and slug parasitic nematodes as potential biocontrol agents in crop insect and slug pest management. Addressing research on these two nematodes from tropical, subtropical and temperate countries, it covers the new techniques and major developments regarding mass production, formulation, application, commercialization and safety measures. Plans for future strategies to make these beneficial nematodes cost-effective and expand their use by including them in integrated pest management programmes in different agro-ecosystems are also discussed. Biocontrol Agents: Entomopathogenic and Slug Parasitic Nematodes provides a comprehensive review of the topic and is an essential resource for researchers, industry practitioners and advanced students in the fields of biological control and integrated pest management. ; This book gives a comprehensive account of entomopathogenic and slug parasitic nematodes as potential biocontrol agents in crop insect and slug pest management in tropical, subtropical and temerpate countries.

        Wer hat nicht von ihnen gehört? Von Ikarus, der bei seinem Vogelflug der Sonne zu nah kam, von Arachne, die besser weben konnte als die Göttin Pallas Athene? Vom überheblichen Sisyphos, von Oidipus und der Sphinx, der geraubten Europa, den Argonauten auf der Suche nach dem Goldenen Vlies? Von Prometheus‘ Qualen und der Büchse der Pandora, von Herakles, Perseus und Eurydike? Hier sind sie versammelt, die schönsten Mythen und Sagen der griechischen Welt, erzählt nach den antiken Quellen. Und Burkhard Neie hat mit seiner singulären Buchgestaltung und seinen Illustrationen daraus einen opulenten Geschenkband gemacht. Ein buchkünstlerisches Ereignis! »Am Anfang war das Nichts.
