A really good book as far as textbooks go . . . this was interesting enough in the way that it presented the information that I wasn't dying of boredom and I learned quite a bit that I don't think I would have been able to get anywhere else. I can understand why some sort of Environmental Science class is becoming required in high schools all over now and I wish that I would have had to take one but I guess I'm just too old. Sad face.

The only thing that I'm truly not happy about is that it came as basically a bunch of pages that needed to be placed into a three ring binder in order to be functional as a book. That and I think that it would have really been about a 250 pages book if they took out all the chapter review things. Does anyone really ever read those or do those?

The physical book was okay, I didn't love that it's loose and needs a 3-ring binder to be used. But the digital copy makes this worth it.
