The approach and reading level cover the basic concepts without overloading students with too much detail.

The authors reinforce the text's central theme of "interrelationships" by providing a historical perspective, information on economic and political realities, discuss the role of different social experiences, and integrate this with the crucial science to describe the natural world and how we affect it." --Provided by the publisher   aAdult   aPurchasedxLauron, RodelloyGeneral EducationzGeneral Education : Biological Sciences  aText in English   aEcology.  aEnvironmental sciences.  aSmith, Bradley F., eauthor.  aVonhof, Maarten J., eauthor.
