My professor used this book as one of our texts for a class called Ecological Change and Society. It was great, with lots of really good figures. Although it is very technical, with a little class discussion, we gained a lot from this book. Not an everyday read, but a great book to use in a class about any kind of Environmental/Climate Change.
