Críticas:

'Spiro, Purvis-Roberts and Stigliani write in a clear and engaging style. They organize the material in a logical and compelling manner, emphasizing the many cross-connections among environmental topics. The bottom line is that this is the environmental chemistry book that we have all been waiting for!' - From Foreword by Harry Gray, California Institute of Technology, USA

'I very much congratulate the authors. This is by far the best environmental chemistry text that I have read.' - Professor John Perona, University of California at Santa Barbara, USA

'The authors provide clear and concise explanations and do a good job of integrating calculations throughout the book. This book is useful both for students learning to apply chemical concepts to understand the environment and for instructors seeking a distinct perspective and important data on the environment.' - Professor Keith Kuwata, Macalester College, USA

'No other text in environmental chemistry so nicely balances breadth, depth and readability.' - Professor A.D. Anbar, Arizona State University, USA

Reseña del editor:

Chemistry of the Environment, 3rd edition, is a concise, clear and current account of today's environmental issues and the science needed to understand them. It systematically lays out themes of sustainability, atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere and biospheres, while stressing the interconnectedness of environmental problems and solutions.
This new edition has been extensively revised to reflect the rapid evolution of all areas of environmental science. Additionally, much of the text and organisation have been refined for enhanced clarity. New worked problems and end of chapter problems have also been included to make this an excellent university textbook.
