The subjects covered in the book include atmospheric [[turbulence]] and [[Air pollution dispersion terminology|stability classes]], buoyant plume rise, Gaussian dispersion calculations and modeling, time-averaged concentrations, wind velocity profiles, fumigations, trapped plumes and [[gas flare]] stack plumes. The constraints and assumptions involved in the basic equations are fully explained.
The book has received favorable reviews, including a description of its "simple straightforward explanations" for a "full course in single-source dispersive modeling".<ref>{{cite journal |journal=Atmospheric Environment |volume=29 |issue=22 |date=November 1995 |page=3397 |first=James P. |last=Lodge |doi=10.1016/1352-2310(95)90214-7 |title=Fundamentals of stack gas dispersion: by Milton R.
