Roy Harrison OBE is Queen Elizabeth II Birmingham Centenary Professor of Environmental Health at the University of Birmingham. In 2004 he was appointed OBE for services to environmental science. Professor Harrison's research interests lie in the field of environment and human health. His main specialism is in air pollution, from emissions through atmospheric chemical and physical transformations to exposure and effects on human health. Much of this work is designed to inform the development of policy.
"...Overall i see this as a solid, informative and generally useful
piece of work.""...it will certainly be a useful addition to
library shelves and ...on a recommended book list for a university
course..." * Physical Sciences Educational Reviews, Volume 10,
Issue, Dipak K Sarker *
"The book however will have a broader audience and certainly will
be of interest to many eager readers willing or requiring a basic
understanding of environmental processes." * International Journal
of Environmental Analytical Chemistry *
Written with the university-level chemistry student firmly in
mind.....overall, an authoritative text that should deservedly
feature on office and library shelves. * Chemistry World, August
