Summary: Good Reference Text; Poor Class Text
Comment: I used this text a few years ago when I was writing a paper on ethics of pesticide use, and it certainly details information well. However, the general tone is often anal and the writing style is extremely drab. Most of the diagrams included were generated using low-budget graphics software, and it shows. At 811 pages, this is an overly long book and not all the chapters (24 total) can be covered in a single Echem course. Also, there is no solutions manual and the problems Manahan gives are challening (a section of numerical solutions placed in the back of the text would have been nice...) This is a good reference text, but if you're looking for a semester-long or short-term text to use for an Echem course, use Baird's text, not Manahan's.

Rating: 1
Summary: Text is good in introduction of topics, poor for advanced
Comment: Text gives good introduction to concepts only and not good for advanced studies because not explain how to apply the concepts to real world problems. It lacks in calculations needed to sovle problems and has no solution guide for the questions that are in the text. A lot of reference texts will be needed to solve the problems. No periodic table found in the text or conversion chart in the text which is very poor for a chemistry text. But it is an excellent text for learning the concepts of environmental chemistry.
