The epidemiology, toxicology, and risks of air pollutants are included, and ethical issues of concern are highlighted. This book is a must-read for students who wish to become professionals in the air quality field and for students of environmental science whose work includes air pollution issues. The book is a significant contribution to the discipline."-- Cliff I. Davidson, Director, Center for Sustainable Engineering; Thomas C. and Colleen L.
