Considered the definitive resource in its field, The Chemistry of Environmental Tobacco Smoke: Composition and Measurement compiles observations on the properties of Environmental Tobacco Smoke (ETS) and on the concentrations of its constituents in indoor air. It focuses on common natural indoor environments and environments associated with chronic exposure. The authors -- all renowned experts -- stress both measurement methods and the competing sources of indoor air contaminants commonly attributed to ETS. For the second edition, each chapter has been updated to reflect new studies and up-to-date information.
