Above all others this is the book that has put the words "environment", "ecology", and "pollution" on the front pages as it were of scientific journals and created a whole new approach to the problems of water pollution.
Written by an authority, this book presents the biological aspects of the problem simply and comprehensively. It contains a general outline of freshwater biology and the chemical and physical effects of various types of effluent. Later chapters deal with the biological consequences of each type of pollution and the effect of these on water supplies and amenities. Its photographs, illustrations, and extensive international bibliography, make it a handbook of immense value to all concerned professionally with this problem.
H. B. Noel Hynes is Professor of Biology at the University of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada.
