An introduction to pollution science

Roy M. Harrison (ed)

Cambridge: RSC 2006 | Pp334 | £24.95 | ISBN 0 854 04829 4

This publication has evolved from the Royal Society of Chemistry's successful Understanding our environment: an introduction to environmental chemistry and pollution, which has also spawned Principles of environmental chemistry.

An introduction to pollution science is suited to students on degree courses in environmental science and pollution studies at both undergraduate and taught postgraduate levels and possibly environmental studies where there is a strong scientific content. Its wider pollution-orientated content will also be of value to chemistry students with a particular interest in environmental chemistry.

A photograph of a teacher standing in a white lab coat, speaking with a class of children in a laboratory, is superimposed on a colourful background. Text reads "Teach Chemistry means support for classroom and staff room".
