Reviews
"What a pleasure this book is! If you teach introductory hydrogeology to students of any discipline, then this book, by Paul Younger, is the one to recommend to your students as precourse or supplementary reading. If they read it, you will not need to give any lectures explaining the context, concepts, or issues...Put it at the top of your courses' reading lists!"

Synopsis
This accessible new textbook provides a thorough introduction to all aspects of groundwater systems and their management. Using straightforward language and analogies to everyday experiences, it explains the origins, nature, and behavior of subsurface water without resorting to complicated mathematics.Groundwater in the Environment draws on case studies and cutting-edge research from around the world, giving a unique insight into groundwater occurring in a wide range of different climate zones and geological settings. This book: provides a robust, practical introduction to groundwater quality, and a succinct summary of modern remedial technologies for polluted groundwatersexplores how groundwater fits into the wider natural environment, especially in relation to freshwater ecosystemsconsiders the vulnerability of groundwater systems and the effects of pollution, climate change, land-use change, and overexploitationexamines human dependence on water and the effect that this has on groundwater systemspresents vivid examples of geohazards associated with ground watersexplains the whys and wherefores of groundwater modelingexamines competing philosophies of groundwater management, making the case for approaches which take social, economic and ecological issues into account.Goundwater in the Environment provides an up-to-date, essential introduction for undergraduate students of environmental sciences, geography and geology. It will also be invaluable to professionals working in various fields of natural resource management who need accessible information on groundwater but who are reluctant to read conventional texts full of mathematical notation. For practicing hydrogeologists and engineerswithout formal training in freshwater ecology, this book provides a crash course' in the new frontiers of groundwater management.Artwork from the book is available to instructors online at www.blackwellpublishing.com/younger and by request on CD-ROM., This accessible new textbook provides a thorough introduction to all aspects of groundwater systems and their management.

    Shipping was quick, packaging was excellent, condition was acceptable as described -- binding loose but pages intact. I did message buyer asking about mold and didn't receive a reply -- luckily, there appears to be no mold. Great value for a 100+ yr old book!

    I received my book in absolutely pristine condition, better than described! Which is impressive because the copy is from 1930 and it looks like it has never been handled. It shipped very quickly, even faster than the estimated time given by a week. It was packaged very carefully. The book and shipping price was also very fair considering the age and condition of the book and the shipping speed. I am very pleased with this seller and will be ordering from them again in the future.
