"A Technical reference to the microbiology of wastewater treatment." --Water Waste Treatment, 7/99 "There have been several earlier books on the same topic, this book is a few steps above mediocre and thus, arguably, the best of the lot." --The Quarterly Review of Biology, Vol. 74, no. 4, December 1999

    A big shoutout to this seller. Very helpful and understanding. When the package arrived the item was wrapped in bubble wrap and news paper. Unfortunately the wooden fire ladder truck was damaged. Front axle was broken. After contacting the seller he was quick to reply and gave me a full refund since replacement parts weren’t available. Thank you for your understanding and sorry this transaction turned out this way.
