| Abstract
|
:
|
PAHs (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) are in the spotlight: they are a unique class of persistent organic pollutants constituted by hundreds of individual substances. Regulatory attention and research efforts are increasing. The timely publication of this book updates key aspects of our knowledge.
