adam_text Twenty years on from the first edition of Pollution and the topic remains high in the public awareness. Environmental pollution is now a major area of research, consultancy and technological development and is a priority for the political agendas of both the developed and developing worlds. The fifth editbn of this book is fully updated, and includes an entirely new chapter on climate change, presenting an authoritative view on this topic. Chapters in fast moving areas have been completely revised and several newcomers have joined the original set of authors. This popular book has proved invaluable as a teaching resource for two decades and is frequently used as a reference by practitioners in the field. Readers of earlier editions will benefit from coverage of new pollutants, such as nanomaterials, as well as the legislative changes that have occurred since the fourth edition in 2001. Extracts from reviews of the 4th edition: *... an ¡deal generai introductory text at both the undergraduate and postgraduate level, as well as an excellent reference text for the environmental scientist, chemist, and consultant. Chemical Educator, 2001 *_ very valuable as a reference work. International Journal of Environment and Pollution, 2002 Editor: Roy M Harrison, BSc, PhD, DSc (Birmingham), FRSQ CChem, FRMetS, Hon MFPH, Hon FFOM, Hon MCIEH Roy M. Harrison is Queen Elizabeth II Birmingham Centenary Professor of Environmental Health in the University of Birmingham. His more than 400 publications are mainly in the field of environmental chemistry, although his current work includes studies of human health impacts of atmospheric pollutants as well as research into the chemistry of pollution phenomena.
