Customer Reviews

I heart soil chemistry.

Item arrived on time and in great condition. Couldn't ask for more. The book is really great an easy to understand. Great Resource book.

For a class

This was required reading for a soil water chemistry course that I took. As the course was problem-based learning, this text came in handy as a resource.

Excellent Book about Environmental Soil Chemistry

Professor Donald L. Sparks has managed to write an excellent and up-to-date book on important topics related to environmental soil chemistry. The book covers all the essential subjects needed for an in-depth understanding of all the complex soil processes that control the fate and transport of both inorganic and organic contaminants in the environment. The book also includes good descriptions of state-of-the-art instrumentations used in environmental soil chemistry such as synchrotron radiation-based X-ray techniques. I use this book in my course entitled "Soil and Environmental Chemistry" and the book has the perfect length for a one semester course and the students like it. I can highly recommend this book for both undergraduate and graduate students as well as professionals.
