This book is required for my Geography class, but I find myself looking at it when Im bored because its very interesting. It arrived in good condition before classes started, which is always good :)

I purchased used book and it was in very good, almost new condition. I paid for express shipping but it still took about 3 days longer to receive than I expected. I would purchase again as long as I wasn't pressed for time.
Great Book

Book explains things very clearly and is very interesting. I did notice that in one of the chapters, in my book at least, there was the same paragraph printed twice in a row. I've never seen that in a textbook before
As expected

X-tremely readable textbook

I wasn't too sure I was getting into the right area of study, but after taking a class that used this text, I'm a lot more confident. It breaks up theories on why the environment is the way it is and how it came to be into well organized chapters and makes them especially clear with ample pictures, tables, and diagrams based on factual examples. I have yet to hear a criticism of these thoeries apart from short, unreferenced, useless reviews, but if it does happen to be fiction, I'd rank it alongside of JRR Tolkien's best. Either way it would make a great 'coffee-table' book. It is also laced near the end of chapters with author commentaries about the human species' inability to avoid poor choices for habitats such as near the sides of unstable mountains or flood-prone land in areas frequented by hurricanes (written prior to 2005), make of that what you will...
