Lastly, Cann featured Colin Baird s Environmental Chemistry as an example of a text that has green chemistry integrated throughout every chapter. In addition, the preface is an introduction to green chemistry, atom economy, and the synthesis of ibuprofen.

After participating in the development of the MINDO method in Michael Dewar s group, Colin Baird initiated a research program at Western Ontario based on ab initio calculations on the ground and excited states of molecules.220 221 Over the years his interests shifted more to chemical education, with a special interest in developing concepts and materials for environmental chemistry.

Books and courses in environmental chemistry usually deal with contaminants that enter air, water, and soil as a result of human activities how to analyze for them and what to add to the smokestack or tailpipe to eliminate them. They are also concerned with how to get the contaminants out of the soil once they are there. Because texts such as those by Andrews et al.,4 Baird,5 Crosby,6 Gupta,7 Macalady,8 Manahan,9 and Spiro and Stigliani10 cover this area adequately, such material need not be repeated here.
