Reader Reviews
I'm using this text as the primary science textbook for my homeschoooled high schooler this year. The book is easy to read and includes lots of interesting and relevant visuals (photos, graphs, maps, etc., all with captions). It's scope covers all the major topics within environmental science. Each chapter has a chapter review (which include critical thinking questions) and additional online activities to do. The quality of the visuals is stunning. I like the way it presents the topics and makes them interesting and real-life, not just theories. All in all, it is really helping my son become interested in environmental isssues and the sciences in general. I've learned quite a few new things myself too.
