Michael Lindeburg's introduction describes the current PE exam format and the topics covered on the exam. He offers many suggestions to help you prepare for it--from planning your study schedule to knowing what items to take with you to the exam.
The Review You Need
ENVRM2 prepares you for every topic you are likely to see on the current exam. Several chapters have been updated with new information and rewritten for added clarity. There are two new appendices. Hundreds of solved example problems reinforce the concepts in the text. A full glossary, with new entries, defines terms that may be unfamiliar. Whatever you need to review, chances are excellent you'll find it here.
The Data You Need
Hundreds of tables, charts, and figures make this a one-stop resource for the exam. Having ENVRM2 with you in the exam cuts down considerably on the number of other specialized resources you'll need. You won't have to juggle 10 different books to find what you need.
The Practice You Need
In the companion Practice Problems (ISBN 1-888577-99-1), more than 370 problems are coordinated to the topics in ENVRM2, giving you lots of opportunity to test your skills. Complete solutions are included.
A Comprehensive Glossary
