Editorial Review: Product Description: This book is intended for use in a one- or two-semester course in environmental science, human ecology, or environmental studies at the college or advanced placement high school level. Because most students who will use this book are freshman or sophomore nonscience majors, the authors have tried to make the text readable and accessible without technical jargon or a presumption of prior science background. At the same time, enough data and depth are presented to make this book suitable for many upper-division classes and a valuable resource for students who will keep it in their personal libraries after their formal studies are completed. The goal of this book is to provide an up-to-date, introductory view of essential themes in environmental science along with emphasis on details and case studies that will help students process and retain the general principles. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - A Decent Environmental OverviewThis text was decent as an intro to environmental issues but lacked depth on some things. In addition there were many typos and grammatical no-no's that were a bit aggravating. The easy practice tests that the publisher provides on their site is rather insulting and was of no value for study purposes. Rating:  - Fast reply and great servicefast response when I had a question, as well as fast delivery. I will buy from this seller again!!! Rating:  - Great book, poor communicationWhen I ordered my book, I tried to contact the seller via email to request if fast shipping was an option. It was not listed at check out and I needed the book right away. The seller never responded to my inquiry. My book did however arrive in very good condition. I was very pleased with the price as well...best I found. Overall, I am satisfied and would buy from the seller again, but not if I'm in a hurry to get my item. Rating: - Good Information and PicturesI 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. :] Rating:  - Do not buy from this sellerI contacted the seller after I found out I did not need this book for the class I was taking. The seller gave me an address to send the book back to with a promise that she would refund my money without shipping of course. I sent the book to the address and it returned to me with a delivery failure. I suggest the seller is a bit more professional next time and promptly refunds a return,as well as giving the correct address. Browse for similar items by category:
