Introducing environmental engineers and scientists (chemists, physicists, geologists, environmental planners, etc.) to biology, Environmental Biology for Engineers and Scientists covers a far wider range of biology than has historically been taught to environmental engineers and offers a way to train future environmental engineers.

• Introduces environmental engineers and scientists to biology, a subject important in their professional lives, but which is not covered well in college
• Based on a graduate-level course designed to teach engineers to be literate in biological concepts and terminology
• Contains information comprehensive enough so that it can serve as a professional reference in addition to a textbook
• Includes problem sets at the end of each chapter
• Includes course material including notes, problems and solutions, and powerpoints of many figures for instructors
