Colin Baird’s Environmental Chemistry presents the most balanced coverage of the environmental chemistry of natural systems on the market, and is the only text available to successfully target an audience with only general chemistry as a pre-requisite. With the addition of new co-author, Michael Cann from the University of Scranton, the new Third Edition becomes the first in the field to incorporate green chemistry into every chapter.
Offers an accessible introduction to chemical principles and concepts and makes the subject accessible to those with little or no previous knowledge of chemistry. It is highly-illustrated, with global case studies, figures and tables.
