Visualizing Environmental Science combines Wiley’s expertise in creating top quality textbooks with rich visual resources such as photographs, maps, illustrations, diagrammatic art, and videos from our National Geographic partners with the content and teaching expertise of new and current authors and unique partnerships. We rely heavily on the integration of National Geographic and other visuals with text to elucidate concepts for students and solidify their understanding of them. Our mission with this book is to help students understand the world around them and interpret what they see in a meaningful, accurate and exciting way. The content, design and layout of the titles take advantage of the full capacity in which students process information – visual as well as verbal.
