The fourth edition of this highly acclaimed text provides an
up-dated examination of the natural environment of the earth at
various levels, from the global to the local. Integrating the study
of geomorphology, climatology, hydrology, pedology and
biogeography, it considers the ways in which we both mould and are
moulded by our landscape and environment. The book also presents an
historical perspective, and investigates natural climatic changes,
hazardous events and human impacts.
This new edition follows the same successful framework of
earlier editions, with extra material, including an extra chapter
on The Organic World. In addition, a list of key concepts has been
added at the end of each chapter and the book now also includes
points for review. With substantially more "windows," updated and
expanded guides to reading, new plates, diagrams, and tables, and
up-to-date examples and case studies, this fourth edition of
"Nature of the Environment" will be welcomed by students and
teachers alike.
