"This work is the first to present a holistic view of the fundamental principles and practicable methods in the case of polluted soils. The work is authoritative and proposes a set of definitions before developing different aspects of the evolution of pollutants in the soil and of their toxicity. It then leads the reader to risk formulation, which is essential in establishing a procedure that includes economic, social and political data." "Ecological Risk Evaluation of Polluted Soils is thus an introduction for all decision-makers, evaluators and students of environmental science."--Jacket.
