5.0 out of 5 stars Helpful general reference on chromium: RECOMMENDED, July 24, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Biological and Environmental Chemistry of Chromium (Hardcover)
This book is essentially a review/summary of existing information on hexavalent chromium. The book is extremely useful as an "introductory" text as well as providing references for more advanced issues. It is perfect if you're looking for a readable primer on chromium. The editors have done a thorough job.
