Product Description
This full-color, introductory environmental science text is known for being concise, conceptual, and value-priced. The approach and reading level cover the basic concepts without overloading students with too much detail. The authors reinforce the text's central theme of "interrelationships" by providing a historical perspective, information on economic and political realities, discuss the role of different social experiences, and integrate this with the crucial science to describe the natural world and how we affect it..

An excellent text of relevant content June 29, 2000

This text does an excellent job of introducing the reader to relevant material with regard to the study of environmental science. The chapters feature current real-life events in an extension format that allows for open-ended discussion and direct application of the content. The text does a great job explaining the role of socioeconomic factors as contributors to global environmental degredation. It can make one consider and question the logic and ethics behind much of what is done by government, industry, and the individual.
Gentle on the issues but well written. August 21, 2004

5 out of 6 found this review helpful
I am an environmental science teacher who chooses to use this book. I agree with the long winded reviewer that this book is gentle on the issues, but believe this approach to be important in an introductory course. As the teacher, I make it my job to color the issues I find important. The 8th edition is out, so this version will become less popular.
Good Information and Pictures May 4, 2008
Elizabeth Boudin (Illinois)
I believe this textbook worked very well in my Environmental Biology class in college. I had great examples and detailed picture. I enjoyed this book very much and in the end I was able to get an A in my class. :]
