2.0 out of 5 stars Not a very useful book, 8 Nov 1998
By A Customer
This book tries to cover so many subjects that it covers none of them well. Most chapters are full of generalities rather than the details needed by a practicing engineer or student. The worst feature of the handbook is the index, which contains so few entries that it is very difficult to find information on a topic or determine if the book even mentions it, which often it doesn't. Rather than buy this expensive handbook, I would suggest investing in standard references for the individual topics (e.g. wastewater treatment, solids waste) in which you are interested.
