Editorial Reviews
Review
"This four-volume set is a contemporary, comprehensive, well-presented, and very impressive contribution to summarizing the understanding of many scientific and environmental issues...The strength of the set is in the quality of the writing and both the breadth and depth of the science presented." JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY
"This is a splendid production...It is really a super-symposium bringing together dozen of articles by experts in a wide range of fields."PALAEOGEOGRAPHY, PALAEOCLIMATOLOGY, PALAEOECOLOGY
"A welcome addition to the literature in this area...Authoritative articles...It is intended for anyone seriously concerned with these issues, whether they be professional scientists and engineers, students, or the informed general public...This encyclopedia is a very useful reference tool...The in-depth, expertly written articles are clear and understandable."AMERICAN REFERENCE BOOKS ANNUAL, ARBA 93
"This excellent encyclopedia of the earth sciences stresses human interaction with all environments on and surrounding the earth...The articles are extremely well-written so that in most cases the educated layperson as well as the researcher are accommodated. By far the most useful aspect of the set is the stressing of human environmental involvement with all geologic processes from pure geology to the atmosphere and space. It is a highly recommended set for academic institutions with earth science programs and for large public libraries."BOOKLIST/REFERENCE BOOKS BULLETIN
