Author Description

The inaugural volume in an important new annual series devoted to presenting divergent views on the most important US and global environmental topics. Volume one is a compendium of 150 article extracted from some 75 popular and professional periodicals. Entries enable researchers to scan for background information, then explore issues in considerable depth. Each article excerpted includes full bibliographic information and each entry refers readers to additional essays on the same topic. Of particular value to student researchers, but with considerable appeal to general readers, who may not want to turn the volume over to the students. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc.
