Intended for undergraduate students with majors outside the sciences, this textbook assumes little or no previous familiarity with chemistry. Emphasizing the role of chemistry in the understanding of environmental problems, the book starts broad, with discussions of ecosystems, atomic structure, and chemical reactions. It then moves toward more specific topics like energy sources, agricultural chemicals, and the disposal of dangerous wastes. The authors teach at American University.
