Environmental chemistry is now a key part of many environmental,earth and life science courses. An understanding of the fundamentalchemistry implicit in the subject is important, but students mustalso be familiar with aspects of mineralogy, oceanography, soilscience, sedimentology and microbiology, to name just a few of thecross–over areas.
The second edition is fully revised and expanded to provide aconcise but thorough introduction to the subject in its widestsense. The book retains an emphasis on describing how naturalgeochemical processes operate over a variety of scales in time andspace, and how the effects of human perturbations can be measured.Topics range from familiar global issues such as atmosphericpollution and its effect on global warming and ozone destruction,the link between chemistry and productivity in the oceans, throughcontamination of soils by synthetic organic chemicals, to themicrobiological processes that cause pollution of drinking water indeltas.
The book contains sections and information boxes that explainthe basic chemistry underpinning the subjects covered. These boxeswill help students with little or no previous chemical backgroundto enter this fascinating subject.
"I can strongly recommend this book as a basic text for all thosewho wish to gain an initial understanding of the chemistry of theEarth and the way humans are interacting with their environment."
Peter O′Neill, University of Plymouth, Progress in PhysicalGeography, June 2005
"Overall, this book is a valuable addition to reading lists forstudents taking undergraduate level courses primarily inEnvironmental Science, but also in Physical Geography, EarthSciences and Environmental Chemistry. It is very readable and wellwritten."
International Journal of Climatology, April 2006
"If I had to recommend one single textbook for courses inenvironmental science to students and all those interested fromother fields, it would be this one. It is an excellent introductoryreader and learning aid."
