From the reviews: "This book is the result of a European collaborative project on Bark and Wood Boring Insects in Living Trees (BAWBILT) ... . The book offers a comprehensive treatment of especially the bark beetles and the bark weevils. ... I can highly recommend the book to forest pathologists. It gives a very good overview of forest protection problems caused by bark- and wood-boring insects ... . If you are looking for a standard reference book on forest entomology this is an excellent buy." (J. Stenlid, Forest Pathology, Vol. 35 (6), 2005) "A European joint effort involving more than 100 scientists ... . The objective of the book was to present a synthesis of the research that has been done on 'Bark and wood boring insects in living trees' (BAWBILT) in Europe. ... The result is an impressive amount of information contained in a single volume that will be of considerable value to researchers ... . the book is well-researched, well-organized, and well-written. ... will be a great addition to the library ... ."
