This book stands out from others in the development by putting an emphasis on environmental management rather than just documenting issues, issuing warnings, and expressing advocacy. From there, the book carries on to discuss more theoretical aspects of management and problem-solving, as well as future issues for our more globalised society. Understanding the meaning, scope, and function of environmental management is made clear in Environmental Health Management's development of both developed and underdeveloped countries. The environmental concepts, problems, and methods of environmental management are first introduced, with subsequent chapters devoted to exploring these topics in more dep...
The book on the fundamentals of geographic Information systems and remote sensing is concise, targeted, and reader-centric. It teaches the fundamentals of Geographic Information Systems and key concepts underlying the technology, with an emphasis on practical concerns and real-world applications. This book is designed to be accessible, pragmatic, and precise in recognition of the fact that many potential GIS users are non-specialists or need only a few maps.

This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the use and appl...
This book covers water quality indices (WQI) in depth – it describes what purpose they serve, how they are generated, what are their strengths and weaknesses, and how to make the best use of them. It is a concise and unique guide to WQIs for chemists, chemical/environmental engineers and government officials. Whereas it is easy to express the quantity of water, it is very difficult to express its quality because a large number of variables determine the water quality. WQIs seek to resolve the difficulty by translating a set of a large number of variables to a one-digit or a two-digit numeral. They are essential in communicating the status of different water resources in terms of water qual...
This book examines the performance of organized retail chains supplying the agri-input and output services in terms of achieving their objective of utilising collective bargaining power in the marketing of their agricultural produce, integrating empirical experience from India and other selected developing countries. The scenario of marketing for agricultural products has been undergoing rapid changes with the rise of organised retailing (the Indian term for ‘supermarkets’), a process that is likely to accelerate in years to come, with India being on the threshold of a supermarket revolution. In fact, India is referred to as the ‘final frontier’ in the development of supermarkets. Th...
