I absolutely loved this textbook. It's really easy to read and kept me interested. I started reading it and finished it before my class even started. It covers so many different areas too. Loved that it talked about overfishing and Tuna, although it could have gone more into depth with it. I would highly recommend it!
This book lays a good ground work for contemporary environmental though and interdisciplinary thinking regarding environmental issues. I highly recommend it.
Amazing book!! So useful and very informative. Gives you a great perspective and helps you look through a set of eyes set on keeping us sustainable
Finally, an easy to read textbook! Funny and interesting all in one! I like this book a lot and I hope I have an excuse to keep reading it in the future.
Great book. Explains things clearly and consistently. Breaks down complicated issues well and easy to understand.
