Comments: This book introduces civil engineers to chemistry and biology through a mass and energy balance approach. It covers ABET-required topics of emerging importance, such as sustainable and global engineering. Problems are integrated at the end of the chapters that are similar to those on the FE and PE exams. In addition, readers will have access to Web modules that address specific topics, such as water and wastewater treatment. The modules include rich content such as animations, audio, video, interactive problem solving, and links to explorations. Civil engineers will also gain a global perspective, enabling them to take a leadership role in sustainable development. About the Author Mihelcic, Zimmerman, and their co-authors introduce the field of environmental engineering by engaging the reader through a comprehensive development of basic principles and a strong focus on design for sustainability. The breadth of content and level of treatment are appropriate for civil and environmental engineers and practitioners of related disciplines seeking a survey of the field. By grounding their approach on the elements of design, the authors instruct readers in how to use the tools of green engineering to design for sustainability and the future of our planet and its inhabitants..
