Very Useful!

I purchased this book because I took an earth science class. It was incredibly useful. It enhanced and clarified the information taught in the class. Because I did not have a regular textbook in the class, this book proved to be an invaluable resource for me. Without it, I would not have done as well as I did. I would highly recommend this book for a basic earth science class in high school or the college level.CliffsQuickReview Earth Science

Excellent overview

This little book provides an excellent overview of the many aspects of Earth Science. After studying this book for a month, I was able to pass the Praxis II Earth Science Content Knowledge Test on the first try, even though I have never taken a course in geology, astronomy, or oceanography. It is easily understandable and succinct, with good diagrams and illustrations and useful review questions.
