This lecture note deals
with the chemistry of the Earth's atmosphere, which includes both stratospheric
and tropospheric chemistry. It encompasses the processes involved in the
formation and destruction of ozone, the chemistry involved in the formation of
smog, precipitation, and atmospheric aerosols. Urban and indoor atmospheres are
discussed as well, including the role of air pollutants and their impacts on
human health and the environment. Subsequently, the book focuses specifically on
global climate chemistry whereby all the changes in the atmospher, which
contribute to climate changes, will be well-eloquently expressed to this reader.
This book could be the best source among students for those pursuing knowledge
in atmospheric sciences, environment chemistry, and global climates.

This note tackles the
very complex issue of the relationship between environmental chemicals and human
health. It explores epidemiological approaches to disease causation,
biostatistical methods for evaluating chemical exposure, and the effects of
chemical reactions within the body. The content covers risk assessment
techniques used in the U.S. for regulatory decision-making and public health
policy. It is a must for students in the fields of toxicology, environmental
health, and public health: it offers a challenging examination of interactions
between environmental chemicals and human biology and the approaches used to
evaluate and counteract their risks.
