Air Quality

«

This is an excellent book, covering a broad range of air pollution topics, and providing in-depth, state-of-the-art, information in a simple, interesting, and logical manner. The book could be of great interest to both the classroom teaching to under/post graduate students as well as young researchers who are trying to find their feet in the area of air pollution and its control.

Prof. Prashant Kumar, Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering, University of Surrey, United Kingdom

Multiple issues of public concern, such as the effects of pollution on various matters: air quality, health, public welfare, ozone depletion, and climate change, are examined in detail. The new edition has updated the most recent scientific findings of several pollution issues. It is an excellent book for students who will pursue careers in environmental science. It can be offered as the core textbook for both lecture and online classes.

Prof. Gong-Yuh Lin, Emeritus, California State University, Northridge, USA

Previous editions of "Air Quality" have sat comfortably on shelves globally for decades. These dog-eared tomes have fostered sound principles in generations of Environmental Scientists. This 6th edition, much improved, and more versatile for my classes, honors this legacy. As in previous iterations, the language is simple but precise; scientific terms are explained in a holistic sense. For the beginner, this book is pioneering instruction; for the veteran practitioner, it is an old friend in new clothing. If you are considering investing your time in this book, don’t hesitate – it is indeed a trustworthy companion.
