Publisher's Synopsis
"This innovative compendium offers a variety of techniques for approaching contemporary environmental problems. Challenging, real-world situations and worked-out solutions provide the means both for gaining insights into the process of problem solving and for thinking quantitatively and creatively about such environmental concerns as energy and water resources, food production, indoor air pollution, acid rain, and human influences on climate. This second edition includes four new topics along with new problems with worked solutions, as well as changes to the homework exercises and updated appendices"--.
