Description
New Age International (P) Ltd., Publishers Heavy Metals And Environment by Mohammad Athar, Shashi B. Vohra
Metals and metalloids are ubiquitous environmental constituents and cannot be broken down to non-toxic forms by the biological system. Once the ecosystem is contaminated with them, they remain as a potential hazard to human health for many years. Heavy metals are particularly important in this respect. This book, which is a part of Man and Environment Series, discusses diverse issues relating to heavy metals and environmental and human health problems.
