New Perspectives in Indoor Air Quality (1st Edition), edited by Pasquale Avino, Fabiana Carriera, and Gaetano Settimo, delivers a detailed scientific foundation for analyzing atmospheric conditions within enclosed structures. Published by Elsevier in 2025, this English-language publication outlines standard methodologies for evaluating air quality parameters and controlling environmental risks.

The volume structures its analytical coverage around major contaminant categories, examining gaseous pollutants, particulate matter, submicrometric particles, and emerging contaminants. To assess these atmospheric threats, the work details primary assessment techniques, incorporating traditional and automatic measuring instruments alongside rigorous sampling approaches. It further addresses specialized monitoring tools, including bioaerosol evaluation and geospatial modeling.

To bridge conceptual frameworks and field implementation, the volume incorporates fifteen detailed case studies, which provide practical, real-world context. These empirical investigations show how technical instrumentation and sampling frameworks function when applied to specific monitoring challenges in enclosed settings.
