Reviews

"As the summary of a vision, the book is brilliant.One can feel the enthusiasm of the authors throughout.I see it as a vehicle for initiating a fruitful dialogue between chemical producers and regulatory enforcers without the confrontation, which often characterizes such interactions."- Martyn Poliakoff,Green Chemistry,February

"Its is an introductory text taking a broad view and integrating a wide range of topics including synthetic methodologies, alternative solvents and catalysts,biosynthesis and alternative feedstocks. There are exercises for students and the last chapter deals with future trends-'Aslib'

"Green chemistry is the utilization of a set of principles that reduces or eliminates the use or generation of hazardous substances in the design, manufacture and application of chemical products.'Measure by measure, [Anastas] and Warner fill this abstract and fairly broad definition with life.Their short book provides a framework for the pursuit of environmentally compatible chemistry.This introductory text is intended to provide a basis for teaching and includes a collection of exercises for the topics of each chapter.Should be consulted by anyone who wants to know about environmentally benign chemistry and, especially, by scientists who contemplate adopting its principles in their own research or teaching efforts."--Science
