Rating:  Summary: A Time Saving Reference Review: If you are like me, you frequently do not have the time to search all of the environmental periodicals for useful articles. This latest intallment of an annual series compiles some of the most important magazine articles from the previous year into a single volume. The editor (John Allen) has done an excellent job not only in selecting the articles, but also in ensuring that the selections represent the diverse field of environmental science. Each volume also contains an index that cross-references the topics as well as a list of important web sites that supplement the topics. As an environmental educator I have found this to be an exceptional reference tool for my classes. I frequently have my students purchase copies rather then send them to the library to copy the articles directly. As many libraries can't afford a complete set of environmental periodicals, this is a time and money saving reference. I have also found that this book can be an enjoyable read for anyone who has an interest in environmental issues. Most of the articles are short (3-5 pages) and presented to the non science audience.
Rating:  Summary: DOn't order here Review: Why are you guys advertising you have 7 books available but you are telling me that this is back ordered until June 2? My class starts on May 28. You want me to take a chance on a chance?
