This
book is an inter-disciplinary work dealing in theoretical
as well as behavioural vistas of environment, covering
both local and global problems at micro and macro
levels. The book presents in-depth analysis dealing
in pollutants, polluted areas, con-servation and environmental
awareness. Concerted efforts have been made to provide
conceptual understanding through different studies,
rather than to expalin the philosophy of environment
and its problems. The contributors belong to various
fields-environment, genetics, mining, research institution,
schools of environmental biology, human ecology and
members of central organisations, state advisory boards
etc.
This book will find favours not only with the researchers
of various disciplines but also innumerable amateurs,
professionals and academicians specially industrialists,
planners, administrators, pollution control boards,
state environment departments, research institutes,
universities etc.
