Synopsis
A major difficulty in environmental science is that much of the information is scattered in the specialized chemical, microbiological, and biological literature. Coverage of all these areas in a single volume, coherence supplied by cross-references, and extensive references to the literature make Organic Chemicals: An Environmental Perspective a unique and valuable resource. The author presents the basic issues in environmental engineering with in-depth focus on the chemical, microbiological, and toxicological aspects. Over 200 figures add both detail and clarity, and specific examples and illustrations increase readers understanding of the issues., Environmental problems have become increasingly complex. The procedures for investigating these problems cross the traditional boundaries of organic and analytical chemistry, microbiology and biology. Organic Chemicals: An Environmental Perspective brings together the basic issues of chemical analysis, distribution, persistence, and ecotoxicology.The author illustrates each point with specific examples and presents a mechanistic approach to microbial reactions. Extensive cross referencing between chapters provides cohesion and complete coverage of issues tangential to each topic. The new edition has been extensively revised, and contains a new appendix, a new chapter, plus further revised information throughout the book. In fact, it is a completely new book.A major difficulty in environmental science is that much of the background is widely scattered in the specialized chemical, microbiological, and biological literature. The coverage of all these areas in a single volume, the coherence supplied by the cross references, and the extensive references to the original literature makes Organic Chemicals: An Environmental Perspective a unique resource.
