Natural Resource Conservation: Management for a Sustainable Future

Book arrived in great condition!

I really enjoyed this book for my NRC class. It covers topics that update and teach you how the Earth is being treated todayand the technologies to possibly make it better. If you are interested in the environment, this book is a wonderful resource.The seller sent it efficiently and it was in mint condition. Thanks!

This "international" version has exactly the same content as the larger book with the polar bear on the cover, but at a lower price. Of course, the page numbers are not the same as the larger book, but I found is super easy to find the content when my Professor quoted the text. It is smaller in size too, which makes it SO much easier to take in your backpack when the book is needed in class. Highly recommend this version!

I guess the title says it all 'Great Read (for a school text book)'This was a book that was required for a class I took. I read it from cover to cover. I have to say - each chapter was well written and interesting. Each chapter addressed a different natural resource (for example air, freshwater, etc) including many I never considered (like top soil).There is a newer edition out there. I contacted the publisher about an update. In hindsite I cannot believe that I, a simple minded student, would ask a publisher for an update! I guess that's just a testament to how interesting the book was, I was thinking perhaps maybe a pdf containing the 2 new chapters. The response I got was NO!Now that the stink eye has been focused on the publisher, there was one point in the book that was a bit annoying. I did not like how the text kept refering to a picture or figure or graphic that almost always was on the next or the previous page turn. I guess that's the challange of the publisher and will always be a problem with the published medium.OK ... so maybe I dont particularly care for the publishers, but it wont stop me from buying another book from them and this is still a great book.

Perfect for the class I needed, did the job well. Great to be able to save on text books through amazon!

Just wanting to document this so we don't get charged when, we return the book. Love the rental progarm

This book does a wonderful job covering all aspects of conservation of natural resources from economics to ethics. It gives a very complete view of all the factors to be considered when you desire to conserve a resource.

Good textbook
