Where to buy Planet System, The books online?
Product Description
For courses in Planet Systems Science offered in departments of Geology, Planet Science, Geography and Environmental Science. The first textbook of its kind that addresses the issues of global change from a right Planet systems perspective, The Planet System offers a levelheaded emphasis on lessons from Planet’s history that may guide choice-building in the future. It is more rigorous and quantitative than traditional Planet science books, while remaining appropriate for non-science majors.

What I wrote for the 2nd edition can be applied to this edition: Planet System Science is a new meadow, one that evolves much more quickly than textbooks can be revised. This one is as current as you can expect, and it approaches the meadow of science in a much better way than any additional textbook I have seen. In particular, most planet system texts approach the meadow by morphing from a traditional discipline. Usually, it’s a geology textbook revised to include atmospheric, oceanic, and climatic studies. But planet system science requires an interdisciplinary approach from the start, a problem based approach. Our global environmental problems need this approach, and this book covers them in a reasonably detailed and accurate manner.
This 3rd edition has a new fleeting chapter on the cryosphere. Many recent studies have highlighted the dramatic changes in the cryosphere, so this chapter is a welcome addition. In addition, results and facts from the IPCC 2007 are included, which makes this update worth getting in and of itself agreed the rapid advances in climate science. I still find the structure of the book, with themes of climate change, stratospheric ozone reduction and loss of biodiversity, to be an outstanding format, as the authors draw links between past, present and future. Impressively, I find that this book is suitable for science and non-science majors alike.

I’m a prof at a tiny liberal arts college, and I like using this text in my course on global environmental change. It works well with non-science majors, as well as with the more advanced science students. It does a superb job with climate change science, which is one of the major focii in my course. It doesn’t hesitate to use real physics, math, and chemistry, yet at the same time is accessible to the non-science folks. Lee Kump is one of the premiere geoscientists in the meadow, and he has lent his broad understanding to this brilliant text. It might also be fun to simply read the book if you are not a student.
The 3rd edition is reasonably similar to the 2nd, with additional material from the 2007 IPCC report.
