Description

This book provides a comprehensive survey of the various sub-disciplines which form the basis of environmental management. The book was written by experts in the three following categories: Natural Sciences topics such as soil, air and water pollution, water management, aspects of pesticides and gene technology; Social Sciences consisting of topics in countryside planning, environmental economics and law; and finally, subjects in Environmental Science and Ecology such as EIA and environmental management modelling are assessed. This volume is intended as an introductory overview of these topics and presents the tools required to practice environmental management. The book is expected to serve as a textbook and a reference book in teaching environmental management at a college or university level.
