Description

   The definitive reference in its field, Ecological Risk Assessment, Second Edition
   details the latest advances in science and practice. In the fourteen years since
   the publication of the best-selling first edition, ecological risk assessment
   (ERA) has moved from the margins into the spotlight. It is now commonly applied
   to the regulation of chemicals, the remediation of contaminated sites, the
   monitoring of importation of exotic organisms, the management of watersheds, and
   other environmental management issues.

   Delineating the processes for performing an ERA, the book begins by defining the
   field, then goes on to describe its relationship to other environmental
   assessment practices and its organizational framework. The book also includes a
   chapter on ecological epidemiology, which has previously been treated as a type
   of ERA, but is now recognized as a distinct practice in itself. It explores
   important concepts in the ERA process including probability, uncertainty, scale,
   mode of action and multiple causes.

   Reflecting changes in the field, the book's scope has been broadened to include
   discussions of the application of ERA to agents other than chemical contaminants.
   The multitude of illustrative figures provides a flavor for the diverse practice
   of ERA. The author has re-organized the material, presenting a unitary process of
   ERA that is applicable to various problems, scales, and mandates. He keeps the
   emphasis squarely on providing clear, scientifically sound, and unbiased
   technical advice on the risks from chemicals and chemical mixtures.

Critics' Reviews

     Reflecting on the evolution of ERA and changes in the field over the past 25
     years, this book is, without question, the definitive reference on the current
     practice of ERA . . . Throughout the book, Suter has succeeded in maintaining
     the emphasis squarely on providing clear, scientifically sound, and unbiased
     technical advice and instruction on ERA.
     -Richard Wenning, Editor-in-Chief, IEAM, in IEAM, 2008, Vol. 4, No. 1
