Michael C. Newman is currently the A. Marshall Acuff Jr. Professor of Marine Science at the College of William and Mary’s Virginia Institute of Marine Science, where he also served as Dean of Graduate Studies for the School of Marine Sciences from 1999 to 2002. His research interests include quantitative ecotoxicology, environmental statistics, risk assessment, population effects of contaminants, metal chemistry and effects, and bioaccumulation and biomagnification modeling. In addition to more than 125 articles, he has authored five books and edited another six on these topics. The English edition and Mandarin and Turkish translations of Fundamentals of Ecotoxicology have been adopted widely as the textbook for introductory ecotoxicology courses.

• Introduction. The Measurement Process. Bioaccumulation. Lethal and Other Quantal Responses to Stress. Statistical Tests for Detection of Chronic Lethal and Sublethal Stress. Population and Metapopulation Effects. Community Effects. Summary. Appendices.

"...without a doubt a book that all aspiring and practicing ecotoxicologists should read and re-read time and time again. With each reading, as the reader learns more, new insights will be gained from this excellent book…This book is not satisfied with presenting the status quo in a recipe type manner, but discusses the limitations of the methods and gently but firmly challenges all ecotoxicologists to lift our game, become more rigorous, and contribute to the development of our branch of science."––Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management, January 2014"This book provides a very fundamental view of ecotoxicology from the perspective of quantitative analysis. It covers all the ecological aspects of toxicology. Overall, it will be an excellent book for students interested in environmental science."—Wen-Xiong Wang, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Kowloon"Mike Newman’s Quantitative Ecotoxicology provides a unique and much-needed addition to the ecotoxicological literature. He covers the most important ecotoxicological concepts (bioaccumulation, lethal and nonlethal responses to stress at the individual level, population and metapopulation effects, and community effects) and effectively combines these with the appropriate quantitative options and considerations for assessing these processes. This book is like an ecotoxicology text and statistics text rolled into one."—Valery E. Forbes, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, USA"... a sound and thorough update from the first edition. It is well written in common language for ecologists to understand." —James Oris, Miami University, Oxford, Ohio, USAPraise for the Highly Cited First Edition"... a refreshing and highly readable treatment of the quantitative aspects of ecotoxicology that can be appreciated by readers with varying degrees of mathematical expertise. ... this book will be of tremendous value to beginning graduate students in ecotoxicology as well as to researchers seeking to add more quantitative rigor to their research questions."—William H. Clements, Colorado State University, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society"... excellent text ... a rara avis."—Glenn Suter, SETAC Globe"... an important contribution to the science. Dr. Newman should be commended for his excellent text."—Gary Rand, SETAC Globe
