This textbook presents key theoretical approaches to understanding
issues of sustainability and environmental management, perfectly
bridging the gap between engineering and environmental science. It
begins with the fundamentals of environmental modelling and
toxicology, which are then used to discuss qualitative and
quantitative risk assessment methods, and environmental assessments
of product design. It discusses how business and government can
work towards sustainability, focusing on managerial and legal
tools, before considering ethics and how decisions on environmental
management can be made. Students will learn quantitative methods
while also gaining an understanding of qualitative, legal, and
ethical aspects of sustainability. Practical applications are
included throughout, and there are study questions at the end of
each chapter. PowerPoint slides and jpegs of all the figures in the
book are provided online. This is the perfect textbook on
environmental studies for engineering and applied science students.
