In addition to assessing the impacts on diseases of national significance, this book has laid the groundwork by summarizing potential climate change scenarios for Brazil and discussed the methodological issues associated with impact assessment. So far, national and regional impact assessments for pests and diseases are only available for a limited number of countries including the United Kingdom, New Zealand, Australia, Finland and parts of Canada. This book serves as a timely benchmark for plant diseases affecting Brazilian agriculture and should help develop policies and strategies to adapt plant disease management to a changing climate. It is refreshing to see chapters on potential impact on nematodes and biological control agents. I congratulate the editors and all authors for this timely and comprehensive treatise on this important topic that is often ignored by the international plant pathology community. If this book only helps to raise awareness among the global plant pathology and plant protection communities, it would serve a very useful purpose.  aBiological control  aChemical control  aClimate change  aPlant diseases and disorders  aClima  aControle biológico  aControle químico  aDoença de planta  aImpacto ambiental  aEnvironmental impacts1 aGHINI, R.
