The book deals with the pesticide toxicity to predators, parasitoids and microbes which are used for pest management in the agroecosystem.

The purpose of the work is to compile and present the different procedures to assess pesticide poising in organisms related to the agroecosystem along with discussions on risk assessment procedures with clear comparison of toxicity of pesticides to target pests and non target beneficial organisms.
