Reviews

'The book is well illustrated with a wealth of clear diagrams, tables, graphs, and photographs. Readers who should benefit include researchers, technicians, and engineers in water-related disciplines ... together with anyone with an interest in water quality. It ... should appeal to a wide audience, avoiding as it does complex mathematical and biological formulae and theories' - IWEM Journal
