This introductory 2004 textbook describes the nature of the Earth's
environment and its physical processes so as to highlight
environmental concerns arising from human use and misuse of soil
and water resources. The author provides a thorough introduction to
the basic issues regarding the sustainable, productive use of land
resources that is vital in maintaining healthy rivers and good
groundwater qualities. He develops a quantitative approach to
studying these growing environmental concerns in a way that does
not require prior knowledge of the physical sciences or calculus.
The straightforward writing style, lack of prerequisite knowledge
and copious illustrations make this textbook suitable for
introductory university courses, as well as being a useful primer
for research and management staff in environmental and resources
management organisations. Each chapter ends with a set of student
exercises for which solutions are available from
