Earth Science Today

Earth Science Today helps you reach your classroom goals. Murphy and Nance recognize the challenge of covering the earth sciences - physical geology, meteorology, astronomy, and oceanography, to name a few-in just one term. So, they've developed a text that helps you create a clear and engaging presentation. While covering traditional topics in comfortable depth, Murphy and Nance emphasize the interplay of the Earth's processes. With this process-oriented approach, they're able to stress the concepts and principles that will stay relevant to students, even after they finish your course. Murphy and Nance's jargon-free language helps your students grasp the concepts and enables them to feel confident in their knowledge of the material. So with Earth Science Today, your students will leave your course with much more than a basic understanding of Earth Science. They'll experience Murphy and Nance's infectious enthusiasm for learning and discovery. And, they'll see how the Earth's processes affect their daily lives-and vice versa. Whenever your students see "hot" blue text in the review materials, your students will know that they can find more resources at the Brooks/Cole Earth Science Resource Center web site. There, they'll be able to find the key terms and concepts for each chapter; review additional critical-thinking questions, activities, and more.
