"Going through this book could enhance one's understanding of the processes and mechanisms controlling the eventual fate of metal contaminants in the soil environment. This can be particularly helpful in assessing the efficacy of a particular soil remendation technique in agricultural and industrial-type setting."-D.C. Adriano, Savannah River Ecology Laboratory, University of Georgia"… this book presents some very good information. … interesting and worth reading. … a good reference for writing papers and grant proposals. … worth adding to your collection.- Vadose Zone Journal, Vol. 1, November 2002Promo Copy
