As you can guess, I work in the mosquito control field. This book is a great read, and for anyone else in my profession, should be in their collection. The ending was a bit dry, but that was only the last 4 or 5 pages, the rest of the book was very captivating and well worth what you pay for. I will be letting everyone I know borrow and read this book.
