4.0 out of 5 stars
A wonderful reference, May 11, 2000
This review is from: World Resources 1998-99 (Paperback)
This book is a wonderful reference book focused on the correlation between environmental change and human health issues world-wide. All of the sections are extremely well written, using clear, descriptive language. Each section also contains an ample amount of charts, tables, and graphs. While these are not as colorful as other books from the United Nations, the use of color is extremely effective. Just a glance at a chart yields its contents, a good time-saving technique for a researcher or student. Finally, there are over a hundred pages of data tables in the back. These tables make it easy to compare countries. Like the articles themselves, the explanations are clear and interesting. Overall, this book is a wonderful reference tool and would easily supplement a course on the global environment.
