Wiley's Remediation Technologies Handbook

Jay H. Lehr, PhD, is the senior scientist at AR Environmental Services Inc. and Science Director at The Heartland Institute. The author of twelve books and over 400 articles on groundwater science, Dr. Lehr has worked extensively with the federal government to develop key environmental regulations regarding surface and groundwater. Wiley empowers learners, researchers, universities, and corporations to achieve their goals in an ever-changing world. For over 200 years, Wiley has been helping people and organizations develop the skills and knowledge they need to succeed. Wiley develops digital education, learning, assessment, and certification solutions to help universities, businesses, and individuals move between education and employment and achieve their ambitions. By partnering with learned societies, we support researchers to communicate discoveries that make a difference. Our online scientific, technical, medical, and scholarly journals, books, and other digital content build on a 200-year heritage of quality publishing.

"The author deserves an A+ on the effort regarding the technologies recognized and evaluated…" (Environmental Practice, March 2005) "...a concise reference...where all the information is in one volume...a welcome addition to the libraries of environmental consultants, regulators, and brownfield developers…" (Ground Water, May/June 2005)"...a must-have for all stakeholders in the contaminated sites industry." (Journal of Environmental Quality, May/June 2005)"...a worthwhile addition to the libraries of environmental consultants, regulators, and brownfield developers…" (The Professional Geologist, March/April 2005)"…compiles enough useful information for site remediation to make it a valuable library addition." (E-STREAMS, February 2005)"…a valuable reference text as well as an excellent educational resource regarding remediation technologies. It will look good standing next to all the other handbooks on my bookshelf." (Chemical Health & Safety, November/December 2004)"…the book represents a very useful compilation of site remediation information. It should save those seeking cost and technical data much time in literature search." (Journal of Hazardous Materials, September 2004)
