"Revised and updated since the publication of the best-selling Seventh Edition, the text continues to emphasize the major concepts essential to the practice of environmental science, technology, and chemistry. The author explores concepts such as the anthrosphere, industrial ecosystems, geochemistry, and aquatic and atmospheric chemistry, including the study of ozone-depleting chlorofluocarbons. Explanations of industrial chemistry and energy resources are supported by topics in recycling and hazardous waste. Several chapters review environmental biochemistry and toxicology, and the final chapters describe analytical methods for measuring chemical and biological waste."--BOOK JACKET.
