This book is designed to meet the needs of students who enroll for ecology and environmental science. A vast literature on this subject is available but this book is a single volume discussion covering all the aspects of ecology and environment. This book is a current and comprehensive yet not encyclopedic intended for an introductory audience. Much effort has taken to provide all possible information and the subject is discussed in multiple angles to cater the diverse interests of the reader. This book is divided into eleven chapters covering ecology ecosystem bio diversity spheres of earth environmental pollution wastes management environmental laws impact assessment environmental agencies and environmental organization. Needless to say this book would be highly useful to the under graduate and post graduate students of science subject. University faculty dealing with ecology and environmental pollution would find this book as an invaluable reference book. In fact this book is not only meant for students and teachers but also for the people who are very much concerned with the well being of our environment. The pictorial representations in this book are not just concerned with the related subject but provide extra information associated with particular subject in providing supplementary knowledge and hence increasing the knowledge by leaps and bounds. Though it is not possible to include the pictures for each and every terms associated with ecology and environment but effort has been made to include the pictures which are more relevant to the subject and will help in understanding the subject. The photos were carefully selected to add realism to the subject and to increase the interest of the reader. Since student use of the text was one of our primary concerns we made a concentrated effort to write a book that is highly usable to understand the basic and fundamental concepts of ecology and environment. To achieve this goal the book is written concisely and well illustrated. Important terms are printed in boldface type within the body of the text and a glossary is included at the end of the text for easy reference. 288 pp. …

References. In recent era of Anthropocene, rapid pace of industrialization and urbanization caused severe threat to natural systems and hand in hand perturbed the global ecosystems and environment. Before the launch of Rachel Carson novel Silent Spring in 1962, describing the impact of a pesticide on birds, environment was generally overlooked and development was the prime priority. After ten years of Carson book, occurrence of Stockholm conference in 1972 triggered and further encouraged a cascade of summit and conferences to make our planet a better place of living by following the path of sustainable development. Global Universities also took this opportunity to start the teaching and research in Ecology and Environmental Science in order to generate environmental awareness and quest of technologies to remediate the environment. This book Ecology and Environmental Science is an attempt to present the fundamental concepts covering various topics with in depth analysis. The thrust is to make the concepts clear, in as simple and comprehensive manner. The attempt was to target the academic welfare of undergraduate and post graduate students of all the global Universities. The book will also be useful for UGC-NET examination for post graduate students in India. The material is organized into thirty chapters. Chapter 1 provides an insight to the concept of ecology and environmental science. Since organisms are integral component of environment, chapter 2 relates to their adaptations towards different environmental factors. Chapter 3-8 focus on ecology of population, community, biotic invasions, geneecology, ecosystem and soil. Chapter 9 (world biomes) and 10 (biodiversity) provides glimpse of variations at different levels. Chapter 11 to 13 emphasizes resources in context of forest, wildlife and water. Chapter 14 deals with atmospheric composition and climate. From here onwards we enter into the vast field of environmental science. Chapter 15-19 covers the environmental pollution aspect in relation to water, air, noise and municipal solid waste. Chapter 20 and 21 deals with the effect of hazardous chemicals in discipline ecotoxicology and heavy metal phytoremediation. Chapter 22 explains climate and environmental hazards. Since the launch of LANDSAT 1, there has been a rapid growth in science, technology and application of remote sensing and GIS. Couples of chapters (23 and 24) are dedicated to this technology. Chapter 25 (instrumentation) is very important for environmental monitoring and assessment. Chapter 26 and chapter 27 discuss energy from Biomass and Energy respectively. Chapter 28 and 29 covers environmental statistics and environmental impact assessment (EIA) with laws respectively. Finally, chapter 30 attempts to cover important miscellaneous topics in environmental science.…
