Organometallic Compounds in the Environment

Professor Peter Craig is an Emeritus Professor in the School of Molecular Sciences at De Montfort University, Leicester, UK. His research has been particularly concerned with metal methylation, reactions and transport in the environment and with the roles of mercury, tin, lead, arsenic and antimony in the natural environment.

"This completely revised and updated edition treats environmental organometallic chemistry as an integrated and coherent subject area in its own right." (International Journal of Environmental Analytical Chemistry, Vol.84, No.14 – 15, 10 – 20 December 2004) “…it is as a ‘one-stop-source’ of research information that this book should be most highly recommended”. ((Applied Organometallic Chemistry, March 2005)
