UP FOR AUCTION

EARTH SCIENCE

by Tarbuck & Lutgens

10th Edition

Student Textbook, Study Guide and CD

This auction is for a hard back Earth Science textbook by Tarbuck and Lutgens.  It contains a CD Rom sealed inside the back cover.  Book is in very good condition with minimal markings (in pencil).  Also included is the Study Guide by Kenneth G. Pinzke.  This is a paperback worktext that is also in very good condition.  There is a website that goes along with this product that expands upon the book.  Please read on for a description of the course.

Earth Science offers a reader-friendly overview of our physical environment for the reader with little or no exposure to science. The emphasis is on readability, with clear explanations and examples, superb illustrations by the renowned Dennis Tasa, and an incredible collection of full color photographs and topographical maps.

Topics covered in this highly readable and interesting book are geology, oceanography, astronomy, and meteorology. For readers needing a basic informational book about Earth Science.  Works well at a highschool level and/or a college level.

This textbook is one of the best scientific books I have seen. Not only does it cover earth science (like geology), but astronomy and meteorology also. It covers every topic that you possibly want to know about. The authors leave no information out. The explanations are great, the images beautiful, and the diagrams very helpful. I would suggest this for anyone that has an interest in Earth Science or Meteorology. It is a great book.
