Intended as a complement to the 1994 book
Selenium in the Environment, edited by W.T. Frankenberger, Jr., and Sally Benson, (Marcel Dekker, Inc.), this book compiles recent basic research on selenium remediation and extensive information on new developments in applied research, particularly related to field selenium investigations. Its purpose is to provide a blending of knowledge from both these important sources and enhance the fact that they are necessary components in the study of a constituent with the JANUS-like complex behavior of selenium.
