This edition spans the entire spectrum of environmental science and engineering. Still the most comprehensive, authoritative reference available in this field.

The monumental two-volume encyclopedia has expanded to include 87 articles on topics ranging from acid rain, air pollution, and community health, to environmental law, instrumentation, modeling, alternative energy, toxicology, radioactive waste, and water treatment.
