The book is unique because of its multidisciplinary approach as it provides a comprehensive and integrated coverage of biophysico-chemical reactions and processes of AOCs in various environments, associated analytical techniques, and restoration of natural environments contaminated by AOCs. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries Preface.\u003c\/b\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePreface\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eContributors.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePART I FUNDAMENTAL BIOPHYSICO-CHEMICAL PROCESSES OF ANTHROPOGENIC ORGANIC COMPOUNDS IN THE ENVIRONMENT.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 Interactions of Anthropogenic Organic Chemicals with Natural Organic Matter and Black Carbon in Environmental Particles (\u003ci\u003eJoseph J.
