Quatrième de couverture

Would you like your students to be able to critically analyze the environmental issues they hear about in the news?

This unique case study book provides the basic tools they will need to probe and examine relevant issues.

  • Features topical and timely cases rather than hypothetical situations. These include population growth, energy and natural resources, transportation, and air and water pollution.
  • Presents the tools of critical thinking and applies them throughout the book. This allows students to understand the nature of critical thinking before they are asked to think critically about an issue.
  • Includes simple math to understand environmental issues. Mathematical formulas are explained in a non-threatening, step-by-step manner that demystifies math and helps students gain confidence.
  • Suggests examples for further research while encouraging students to explore the implications, significance, and validity of their work.
  • Written in a clear and straightforward style.
