5.0 out of 5 stars Better than your average textbook, May 31, 2008
This review is from: Introducing Physical Geography (Wse) (Paperback)
I bought this for an online class. I have taken other online classes and found the books hard to follow when studying on my own. This book, though,was not hard to follow. The diagrams in the book are the most valuable because they give a good visual image that makes the information easier to remember. I took this 4 hour course in 4 weeks and with a different book, I would have had trouble.

5.0 out of 5 stars Flex Format Edition, March 5, 2010
This review is from: Introducing Physical Geography (Wse) (Paperback)
This paperback edition is just as good as the hardcover edition as far as I know. There's also a less-known edition called the flex format edition that's supposedly identical but fits in a 3-ring binder. The ISBN for that one is 978-0471752523 and they look to be even cheaper than this one ($40).

Ah, I found it: (WCS)Introducing Physical Geography 4th Edition Flex Format

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Introducing Physical Geography (Wse) (Paperback)
Fast delivery, good condition, rated it for these reasons, not because I love the book =) Dislike the class a lot. But thanks for the great business.
