In this seventh edition, the author has added the How Would You Vote? feature, which is the application of current news topics. Students apply their environmental science knowledge from the book to a web activity, which helps them investigate environmental science issues in a structured matter.
Miller's SUSTAINING THE EARTH, 7th Edition is the briefest and most up-to-date environmental science text on the market. It has the most balanced approach to the environmental science instruction with bias free comparative diagrams throughout and a focus on prevention and solutions. In this seventh edition the author has added the "How Would You Vote,?" feature, which is an application of topics in the news. Students apply their environmental science knowledge from the book to a web activity, which helps them investigate environmental science issues in a structured manner. They then cast their votes on the Web. Class results are tallied, and these can also be compared to state wide and nation- wide tallies. Instructors can now also use the Opposing View points Resource Center to assign readings that correspond to the Web based "How Would You Vote?" questions; each reading provide arguments and resources for each side of a debate. As with the previous edition, this text is packaged with a free Student CD-ROM entitled "Interactive Concepts in Environmental Science."
Organized by chapter, the CD offers students links to relevant resources, narrated animations, interactive figures and prompts to review material and test themselves. Tyler Miller is the most successful author in academic writing on environmental science, because of his attention to currency, trend- setting presentation of content, ability to predict student and instructor needs for new and different supplements, and commitment to retaining the Hallmarks on which instructors have come to depend. The seventh edition of SUSTAINING THE EARTH is everything you have come to expect and more.
