Description
Building on the success of prior editions, the new Fifth Edition of Environmental Science continues to present a balanced analytical and interdisciplinary approach to the field.  This approach equips students with a solid scientific background in environmental science, so they can think through environmental issues and make their own decisions regarding the environment.

 The text weaves six central themes throughout the book: Human Population Growth, Sustainability, A Global Perspective, An Urban World, People and Nature, and Science and Values.  Rather than explaining how environmental problems should be solved, the authors encourage students to think for themselves.
