Trade Review"A must in all libraries without any doubt..." (Environment International)
"The problems are worth the price of the book all by themselves...the language of the book for the student is personal and easily understood...obviously written by a senior professor who cares deeply for the field...it is in short a superb text and deserves your consideration." (AEESP Newsletter, April 2001)
"Environmental systems and processes may be useful as a textbook for undergraduates or as an introductory reference for researchers." (International Jnl of Environmental Analytical Chemistry, Vol.80, No.302, 2001)
"... refreshing ... an interesting journey..." (Chemistry & Industry, 5 August 2002)
