4.0 out of 5 stars
A Decent Textbook!,
By David Smith "doctorjn" (Richmond, VA. USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Introducing Physical Geography (Paperback)
This book is a pretty decent textbook. It's rather interesting even if your passion is not geomorphology (mine isn't) and the illustrations are useful. A great feature in this book is that after every couple of paragraphs it gives you a summary of the information contained in those paragraphs for studying. Those summaries are so well-done you could essentially read them and not the text and still get an A in the class.
There is a newer version of this book, but it's almost exactly the same, so I bought this one as a value option and it was not a problem at all. I got an A in the class and the changes in the newer version were minimal and I never noticed them. The reason I give 4 stars instead of 5 is two-fold: #1 - too much metric and uses feet/miles only in a secondary fashion. #2 - the CD that comes with it is not worth using at all. Don't even bother installing and using the CD. |
