Media Reviews

All in all, the piece introduces the subject, to deepen the reader's knowledge quite systematically, be it an experienced researcher in the related field or a research student in the need for a good head-start . . Future prospects and challenges presented in almost every chapter inspire the reader to work on the development of a greater future with minimal waste generation and effect on the public health.
