Here we have something excellent: a guide to pollination resources in the tropics. The book is a compendium of information concerning all the different aspects of the pollination of tropical crops: pollinators, pollination methods, ecological considerations, how to study pollination, using pollinators in tropical agriculture, and much more. One of the three appendices is a useful list of 1330 economically important plants species: their use, origin and pollination information. Indices by scientific and common names are provided, and in a user-friendly way. This A4 size book is packed full of information, all of which is accompanied by interesting and stimulating black and white illustrations.
