and on European forests illustrates this clearly. Atmospheric emissions from traffic and combustion processes must be reduced, but industry is rarely prepared to invest until complex source and effects relationships are ascertained. Will it be too late then for adequate mitigation and control? Trans-frontier pollution is truly international, affecting the communist block as well as Western Europe, but who will pay for the costs of abatement? Reduction of toxic particulates in air at the pollution source has been successful for vehicular lead emissions in the 198Os, with stricter exhaust standards and the use of lead-free fuel. Associated spin-offs leading to reduced NO, emission levels should reduce acid rain, but research is needed to ensure that other detrimental effects do not occur. Moore’s examples are as up to date as possible, and more recent incidents such as Chernobyl only serve to illustrate his points. With continuing recognition of environmental degradation, national emphases are changing. Since publication of The Changing Environment, Sweden has announced proposals for a non-nuclear energy policy even if gas reserves prove inaccessible. This illustrates the need for frequent
revisions of Moore’s text. Environmental and human health are closely related issues. The political publicity following hazardous waste incidents such as Love Canal have resulted in the establishment of the US Superfund for future incidents. Moore cites groundwater contamination as an example of a new interdisciplinary research area assessing the physical, chemical and biological components of environmental processes. Nor can the environment be divorced from energy issues. With lower energy prices and reduced energy use in the late 198Os, alternative energy sources and new fossil fuel technologies appear less pressing economic issues. However, the development of new methods for oil recovery and the gasification and liquefaction of coal will be needed in the early 21st century, when conventional energy sources are reduced. Future environmental effects, both of effluent and waste disposal from energy installations, need to be anticipated. Perception of the appeal of the nuclear generating industry as a solution to energy shortages will depend on energy pricing in both developed and developing nations, but whatever reactor system is adopted, better enforcement of safety
hardware and techniques now available, but no more than that. Finally, a quibble: in his over-brief first chapter the author undersells the usefulness of basic radio tagging. It is potentially much more than a glamorous means of miscellaneous data gathering and the firsttime user could have been given much more help in discovering the more interesting biological problems to which radio tagging has been or should be applied.

Pollution Management The ChangingEnvironment
by James W. Moore, SpringerVerlag, 7986. DM 86 (viii + 239 paged ISBN 3 540 96374 6 Polttical leaders are increasingly being forced to take environmental issues seriously at both a national and international level. In his assessment of the importance of changing attitudes to controlling pollution, Moore provides a comprehensive appraisal of current needs and measures for both developing and dev.eloped countries. Awareness of the need for environmental management is growing and Moore illustrates increased perception of the problems from many specialized fields, using examples that have not already been emphasized by the media. ‘Prevention rather than cure’ applies as much to the environment as to human health. The costs of attempting to clean up after pollution incidents are enormous, yet it is still difficult to encourage adequate investment to control pollution at source. Preventive measures are too frequently outweighed by the prospect of job losses or other political issues. Moore’s consideration of the effec:ts of acid deposition on waters in Scandinavia and North America

measures will be required. Moore perhaps overemphasizes the US advances in environmental controls, especially of hazardous wastes; many western European countries and Japan would contend that the US Environmental Protection Agency’s influence has in fact declined and that significant improvements in pollution control technologies and charging systems have been made elsewhere. Moore considers a wide range of subjects, from destruction of tropical forests to misuse of pesticides. Such issues have recently been emphasized in the Brundtland Report from
1988
the World Commission on Environment and Development. With increased political awareness, many solutions are now possible and economically viable, even for Third World governments with problems of population growth, starvation and economic mismanagement. The latest World Bank aid directives accentuate the need to provide environmental controls. Developed and developing countries must work together to solve the economic aspects of environmental pressures. Moore tackles the Herculean task of discussing the measures needed to protect our environment for future
generations in one volume - something rare when most authors are more specialist in their approach. International agreements need to be carefully designed to make their implementation effective but are necessary to balance environmental requirements against the pressures for industrial and economic growth. Pollution prevention does pay.
