APPLIED AGRICULTURE INSECTICIDES IN AGRICULTU...

Professor Albert S. Perry passed away suddenly on February 18  1992  leaving behind his
grieving family  friends and colleagues. It was his aspiration to produce a comprehensive work
on insecticides to summarize his lifelong dedication to the field of entomology and public
health. On the day before his operation  he expressed his desire with the following words: . 1
am coming out of this surgery and will recuperate from it as soon as possible for the sake of
my boy (then aged three) and the book. He also told me that he would like to add a chapter on
IPM (Integrated Pest Management) and suggested that we write it together. The sad reality is
that none of this took place the way he had planned and these became his last words. On my own
I found it difficult to proceed with the writing of the IPM chapter  since several chapters are
required to cover· this subject and  in fact  several books. are already devoted to IPM. There
was even an IPM article written in a journal (Awake 1983) for a general audience to which he
commented that he would like to use it someday because it was well written for laymen  thus
providing the readers a wide selection of journals and books to choose from.
