The book gives clear, concise explanations of each aspect of the environment and atmosphere. The Earth, clouds, oceans and soils are covered. Nice illustrations to better comprehend topics in each chapter.

I wasn't too sure I was getting into the right area of study, but after taking a class that used this text, I'm a lot more confident. It breaks up theories on why the environment is the way it is and how it came to be into well organized chapters and makes them especially clear with ample pictures, tables, and diagrams based on factual examples.

I have yet to hear a criticism of these thoeries apart from short, unreferenced, useless reviews, but if it does happen to be fiction, I'd rank it alongside of JRR Tolkien's best. Either way it would make a great 'coffee-table' book.

It is also laced near the end of chapters with author commentaries about the human species' inability to avoid poor choices for habitats such as near the sides of unstable mountains or flood-prone land in areas frequented by hurricanes (written prior to 2005), make of that what you will...

it was an easy to read and very helpful book. if found it explains the major concepts clearly and provides more in depth details aswell

Book explains things very clearly and is very interesting. I did notice that in one of the chapters, in my book at least, there was the same paragraph printed twice in a row. I've never seen that in a textbook before

If you remember anything from geography in elementary school, you probably don't need this book. I was required to have it for a lower division college class. I off loaded the book as soon as the class was over.

It would have been nice if the listing had mentioned that the custom edition is missing chapters 8, 9, 12, and 13.

Great Service Product was just as described. It arrived in a timely manner. I would recommend using this store anytime.

Really fast processing and it's all good, the book came new, in perfect condition. definitely the better alternative to any other book place, as long as they have the book that you need!

This book is exactly what I needed for school, it was received it great condition! I can't wait to read it.
