Reviews "Exceptionally well-documented accounts of physiological aspects for sustainable crop yield, successfully edited by Professor Abbas, Dr. Pradeep Kumar, and Dr. Ajay Kumar Tiwari. The book will have an extensive impact on the field of crop physiology. In this rich and comprehensive documentation, different authors have contributed in view of providing the scope to explore various modern trends for sustainable crop production focusing on human welfare. The perfect sequence of the chapters, including neat and clean illustrations as well as relevant references throughout, remarkably reveals a convincing and delightfully readable narrative. . . . Future efforts along these notions and objectives would certainly provide new insights into the sequential development of fascinating tools for sustainable crop production." —Sanjay Mishra, Professor and Dean, School of Biotechnology, IFTM University, Moradabad, UP, India Now Available in Paperback CONTENTS: About the Authors / Editors: Editors: Zafar Abbas, PhD Senior Associate Professor and Chairman, P.

AAP support has been truly important throughout the initial and final stages of the book. While the majority of the publishing work is done at the early stages, the final touches that include the last-minute corrections of the authors are extremely crucial to the quality the book tries to convey. The assistance of AAP during the last stages of corrections and communication with the authors was a very positive contributor to my state of mind during those stressful moments. I recommend the publishing experience with AAP to other editors of scientific material.” —Stavros Hatzopoulos, PhD, Hearing Science Laboratory, University Hospital of Ferrara, Ferrara, Italy AAP book title: Nanotechnologies: The Physics of Nanomaterials (2-volume set) “I was very pleased with the interaction and support of the team at Apple Academic Press.
