内容説明
For introductory courses in Earth Science in departments of Geology, Geography, Atmospheric Sciences, and Education.
The twelfth edition of Earth Science offers a user-friendly overview of our physical environment with balanced, up-to-date coverage of geology, oceanography, astronomy, and meteorology for the undergraduate student with little background in science. The emphasis is on readability, with clear example-driven explanations. The twelfth edition takes full advantage of the subject's visual appeal, with discussions reinforced by incredible color photos and superb illustrations by Earth science illustrator and geologist Dennis Tasa.

内容説明
Somewhere between a text and a tutor GEODe: Earth Science version 3 DVD, included with your book, employs the unique capabilities of the computer to illuminate key concepts in Earth science. Animations, videos, photographs, text, narration, and interactive exercises are presented in a tutorial format. Do you learn better by doing? Exercises throughout the DVD get you interactinginstead of just memorizing. Does your lab not always parallel your lecture? A quick review of the relevant module will help you prepare you for your lab, whether or not you have covered the topic in lecture. Look for the GEODe: Earth Science icon throughout the text. The DVD is plug-and-play-no special software or installation is necessary-so it's perfect for use in your school's computer lab (though you should probably use headphones).
