Inhaltsangabe

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.
