This book was a great read. I enjoyed all of the chapters and it should be part of anyonea s library who is interested in issues of sampling in theory and practice. Ecology The chapters are concise but well illustrated and the index of methods is a real bonus. Coverage is excellent and therea s enough material to plan sampling or to discuss it in a wider context. With a lot of coverage in a compact form this text would be a good addition to a field work library. Teaching Ecology Group Newsletter, January 2005 This is a book to delve into, when you need some inspiration on how to sample insects, since a novel method might prove to be significantly superior to the one you have been using -- all those rare beetles are really quite numerous. I recommend acquiring a copy for your bookshelf.
