      abstract = {Now in its updated second edition, this book describes  emerging chiral environmental pollutants and their  importance in environmental and human toxicology, as well  as enantiomer selective separation and analytical methods.  Compared to the first edition from 2001, the book has been  completely restructured and a wealth of new material has  been added to account for new developments. The book  reports on the modern enantiomer selective separation  methods, including enantio-selective chromatography  techniques, which have even been successfully tested in  space during the ESA Rossetta mission. The authors clearly  outline why the topic of chiral environmental pollutants  has become even more important: many new chiral compounds  have been released in recent years (e.g. as new  pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals), and traces of these  compounds can now be found in the environment. The authors  explain that (and how) chirality can be a very important  feature for the bioactivity of anthropogenic pollutants. In  this book, readers find an introduction to the topic,  including all important aspects, from the introduction of  new enantiomer selective analytical methods, and of  emerging chiral environmental pollutants, to aspects on  environmental and human toxicology and exposure, risk  assessment, and aspects on climate change as well as other  new aspects on chirality in the environment. The book is  thus a must-read for everybody working in the field of  chiral environmental pollutants, but it is also beneficial  for teaching purposes in specialized post-graduate courses  in advanced analytical chemistry, pharmaceutical analytics,  or environmental chemistry.},
