Chemical Concepts in Pollutant Behavior demonstrates how theproperties of a chemical determine its fate and distribution in theenvironment. Over the past thirty years the author has worked withcolleagues on addressing problems associated with chemicals,particularly pesticides, and it has become evident how important achemical perspective can be in understanding and minimizing theseproblems.
Now in a newly updated second edition, this accessible textrequires only a basic understanding of chemistry. Classroom tested,it is an excellent resource for students and professionals workingin environmental science, toxicology, chemistry, and engineering,as well as ecology, public health, agriculture, and forestry.
