Ecological risk evaluation to forecast the effects of pollution and provide a scientific basis for decisions in matters of environmental management turns out be particularly complex because of its interdisciplinary nature. Rivi<`e>re (National Institute for Agronomic Research, Versailles) presents a holistic view of the fundamental principles and practical methods in the case of polluted soils. He leads through the known factors to formulating a risk evaluation that incorporates economic, social, and political data. The original valuation du risque <'e>cologique des sols pollu<'e>s/> was published by Technique and Documentation, Paris, in 1998. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
