Life Support and Biospherics--a handbook.
The new book Life Support and Biospherics--Fundamentals, Technologies, Applications is intended to be the "Introduction to Life Support Systems" that has been lacking so far.  It contains information on any aspect of life support systems development and design.  The structure of the books is such that it, step by step, answers the basic questions concerning terrestrial and space life support systems of any scale--from small microbial systems to the Earth's biosphere.  This article gives an overview of the contents of Life Support and Biospherics.
