Synopsis

"Plant Disease Prevention" delivers a vital guide for both professional growers and home gardeners, addressing the critical intersection of food security and sustainable gardening through comprehensive disease management. The book uniquely combines traditional wisdom with cutting-edge scientific research, presenting a three-pronged approach: systematic disease identification, preventive measures, and environmentally conscious treatment methods.

This practical resource stands out for its accessibility in explaining complex phytopathological concepts through real-world examples and detailed visual references. The book's progression follows a logical path, beginning with fundamental concepts of plant immunity and disease development, including the roles of various pathogens and environmental stressors.

Through its middle section, readers learn systematic approaches to disease identification, supported by detailed photographs and diagnostic keys. The final section culminates in practical prevention strategies, blending time-tested methods with modern scientific approaches. Throughout, the text maintains a careful balance between scientific accuracy and practical applicability.

What makes this work particularly valuable is its interdisciplinary approach, connecting plant pathology with soil science, climatology, and sustainable agriculture. The book focuses specifically on diseases common in temperate and subtropical regions, providing actionable guidelines for various growing environments. With its emphasis on organic farming methods and sustainable practices, it serves as an essential resource for those seeking to implement proactive plant health management strategies while maintaining environmental responsibility.

Leo & Friends: The Dogs with a...

Lyndsey Uglow

‘I knew dogs could make a difference to the children’s lives. I knew it the moment I watched a little boy, exhausted by pain and sickness, stretch out his hand to touch my dog’s paw, and then…he smiled.’ 
Lyndsey Uglow has endured and overcome mental health challenges and much personal pain, including her young son’s battle with Leukaemia. Lyndsey knows only too well the emotional rollercoaster experienced by parents supporting their children through critical illness, but she also knows just how much the company of dogs can alleviate just some of their worry and pain. 
The healing bond with dogs that helped her, she now shares with others – in the shape of a dynasty of exceptional Golden Retrievers, including the incredible Leo. Since 2012, Lyndsey has made it possible for therapy dogs to visit more than 10,000 children, many critically ill, bringing smiles of simple joy and a sense of normality to lives ruled by pain, sadness and uncertainty in paediatric intensive care, cancer wards and palliative care. 
Leo has also faced his own battles. After suffering a serious injury on a beach run, he was saved by a pioneering technique which restored him to full health for the sake of the children who were missing him so much. 
This is Lyndsey and Leo’s story and how they have brought the extraordinary healing powers of dogs to others; while sharing the stories of just some of the thousands of children for whom a soft paw or wet nose has brought comfort, care, laughter and joy at the darkest of times. 
Lyndsey Uglow's LEO & FRIENDS is a heart-wrenching memoir that explores the themes of grief, bereavement, and the healing power of pets. It's a top-rated autobiography that delves into the complex dynamics of family relationships and the solace found in the companionship of animals. 
For fans of Andrew Cotter (Dog Days), Linda Watson-Brown (Sins of the Father), Dr Amit Patel (Kika & Me), Noel Fitzpatrick (Dogs and Their Humans), and James Herriot (All Creatures Great and Small).
