fundamentals of ecotoxicology is very good for a undergraduate-graduate course. It could be used at an undergraduate level as well. I taught Aquatic Ecotox in my previous institution. It is easily read. Jerry Farris used it in his grad-only course when I took it from him. He previously used a very expensive book (handbook of ecotox?). I think Newman is a little elementary for a grad-only class, but if supplemented with outside readings it could do the trick. I am not familiar with Walker's text.
