Descripción del artículo del vendedor

The anthology Environmental Science in Focus: An Interdisciplinary Introduction, examines what people need from nature, how we acquire natural resources to meet those needs, and how the choices of resource acquisition affect both nature and humans.A product of 19 years of environmental science education and interdisciplinary training, the material covers concepts from natural science and other fields that are involved in issues of environmental design and problem solving. This interdisciplinary approach incorporates geography, sociology, chemistry, physics, economics, soil science, history, anthropology, and philosophy.The book begins with an introduction to how the field of environmental science developed. The five subsequent chapters cover topics such as:Population EcologyThe Effects of SuburbiaGentrification and the New UrbanismPreservation/Conservation/RestorationClimate Change and Outdoor Air PollutantsTopics are linked to current practices in the field, and the material includes regional information on current municipal and academic environmental science projects.Concisely written in an engaging way that appeals to non-science majors, as well as those pursuing further study in the field, this introductory textbook can be used in Introduction to Environmental Science courses, classes addressing cities and the environment, and population resources. The included material is also applicable to courses in urban ecology and urban planning.
