| Abstract
|
:
|
"This book, written by a UNESCO/IAH working group chaired by David Lerner of the University of Sheffield, explains the nature and value of urban groundwater. It discusses the types of pollutants that are found, and their sources. The unique aspect of this book is the in-depth discussion of six different urban environments, each with several case studies." --Book Jacket.
