Description:
Description: This is the 22nd edition of what is often abbreviated as just Standard Methods. This book and its predecessors are without peer in terms of encyclopedic characterization of environmental chemistry and beyond. The origins and production of this book now span portions of three centuries, making it arguably the longest standing reference of its type in the world. Its adaptation of chemical and biological analysis methods is remarkable.
Purpose: The primary purpose of this book is to inform and define the analysis of water, wastewater, and related materials. Beyond this, it chronicles the development and further evolution of environmental analyses. It comprehensively permits measurement of biological, chemical, and physical attributes of water and offers guidance for choosing among available methods.
Audience: \"Technical personnel charged with performing, developing, or modifying such procedures will find this update useful. Furthermore analysts, researchers, and regulators will examine its contents. A variety of personnel representing the media, policy makers, and educators also can benefit from a reference that both defines and explains the complicated business of assuring the safety of the public\'s water supply. \"
Features: Major sections are devoted to physical and aggregate properties, metals, inorganics, aggregate organic categories, individual organic compounds, radioactivity, toxicity, microbiology, and biologicals. Methods are listed in categories of proposed (undergoing development and validation) or standard (qualified). Readers outside of environmental chemistry and biology should understand that the methods may appear a bit dated when this isn\'t exactly the case. The reasons for this are complex, but stem from the fact that the requirements for water analysis are regulatory-driven. It is helpful to look for the date footnote at the beginning of each section.
Assessment: There is an oft-repeated statement among graduate faculty that if one were to read (and understand) a particular textbook, then that person would be prepared to sit for the PhD-qualifying examination. The difference in the case of Standard Methods is that after reading it, one would likely be prepared to sit for many PhD-level examinations across the breadth of physical and natural science. The most profound change in the 22nd edition is the global update with respect to quality assurance. Cooperative elements of the American Public Health Association, the American Water Works Association, and the Water Environment Foundation have come together to provide a vital reference.
