Reviews
This timely book sets out to be a balanced and comprehensive review and it achieves this purpose admirably. As with all worthwhile technical reviews it is a joint effort, in this case by 10 contributors who write well and authoritatively on their chosen subject ... This volume is recommended to students and scientists of all disciplines and attainments, whose primary interests are in the soil or the environment, both for its technical merit and as a source of reference. - Chemistry in Britain; It is an excellent book and can be highly recommended even to those who already own the first edition but want up-to-date information for all the heavy metals at their fingertips. - Analyst; This is an excellent modern text, which covers the origins, occurence and behaviour of metals and metalloids in soils. - Waste Management Today; It will no doubt become a standard source of reference for agricultural and environmental scientists. - Soil Use and Management; It is...pleasing to see the arrival of a fully revised, updated and expanded second edition...It will, without doubt, continue to be recognised as a standard source of reference for information on the behaviour and impacts of heavy metals in soil systems. - Environmental Pollution; This book is a very worthwhile contribution to the store of knowledge and understanding of the behaviour and impacts of heavy metals in soil. - The Environmentalist

Synopsis
Heavy metals in soils continue to receive increasing attention due to the growing scientific and public awareness of environmental issues and the development of analytical techniques to measure their concentrations accurately. Building on the success and acclaim of the first edition, this book continues to provide an up-to-date, balanced and comprehensive review of the subject in two sections: the first providing an introduction to the metals chemistry, sources and methods used for their analysis; and the second containing chapters dealing with individual elements in detail., General principles. Introduction. Soil processes and the behaviour of heavy metals. The origin of heavy metals in soils. Methods of analysis for heavy metals in soils. Individual elements. Arsenic. Cadmium. Chromium and nickel. Copper. Lead. Maganese and cobalt. Mercury. Selenium. Zinc. Other less abundant elements of potential environment significance. Appendices.

    I absolutely love this store. The books I ordered were as described, wonderful condition and all imperfections were listed in the description. The packaging was out of this world. Each book was carefully wrapped in tissue paper, then further wrapped in bubble wrap. Additionally each book was stabilized by a carton and placed in the shipping box. There were some issues with shipping from the USPS side but the vendor called them and they arrived short after. The value was better than other vendors

    Book exactly as described, and superfast shipping. Best part was the absolutely brilliant packaging, shipped in a protective box, wrapped in tissue paper, then in bubble wrap. So nice to receive the item in undamaged condition because the seller went to the extra trouble and expense to ensure that it reached me safely. Added to favorite sellers. Thanks!!!!!!

    Fair price, item just as described. Also, HANDS DOWN the BEST packing job I've ever seen from a book dealer. Product was packed the way an item from a factory floor might be packed: the book first wrapped in layers of tissue paper and bubble wrap, neatly sealed with tape, and then shrink-wrapped within new, clean, padded cardboard that was in turn surrounded by packing paper inside *another* new, clean box. I am VERY HAPPY with this purchase and HOPE TO DO BUSINESS WITH THE SELLER AGAIN.
