Opis

Whether you're a student or an educator, you've probably experienced the doom from looking at a blank page. You've titled your research paper, lesson, or lecture-whatever it may be-but you find yourself asking the proverbial question, "Where do I begin?"

Luckily, when it comes to environmental studies, you will never face that question again. In his twentieth-anniversary edition of this encyclopedia, H. Steven Dashefsky hands readers the tools for diving straight into a project. All it takes is choosing one topic or term and letting the text take you by the hand and guide you through a series of cross-referenced entries, until you realize your essay outline has written itself-or that your lecture is now chock full of talking points.

The guide's content covers many timely issues, including social media, toxicity in common household items, and health-related issues. The overall experience is like a conversation, as each entry carries a casual, accessible tone that spurs ideas and doesn't assume prior scientific knowledge.

This updated edition is a must-have for libraries, instructors wanting to develop cross-discipline curriculums, and anyone else with a desire to stay informed about our planet's environment.
