Offering a uniquely strong emphasis on earth systems and an increased emphasis on environmental topics, Earth Science and the Environment stands out among other earth science introductory textbooks. Discussion of how the solid earth, the atmosphere, the hydrosphere, and living organisms interact, as well as the effects of these interactions, is presented throughout the text. This introductory textbook provides a rich overview of all Earth-related disciplines, including geology, geography, oceanography, meteorology, and astronomy.
