Reviews

'Well written ... clearly printed, being packed with information useful to the environmentalist, as well as investigators into both atmospheric and aquatic pollution problems and, of course, biologists in Water Authority laboratories.' The Environmentalist, 8:2 (1988) 'In that sense, the book edited by Klaus Kaiser is certainly the most complete presence source concerning the results and problems of environmental toxicology. Value of the collection is highly enhanced by the rich index system completing the book. There is a good chance that the editors' hope ('this book will be of use as a lasting reference source for both freshman and specialist in the field') will come true.' QSAR, 88/3
