520 _aThe two-volume "Encyclopedia "contains 360 articles covering every topic in the field. The authors encourage learning through the use of appropriate scientific terms, explaining them in the text and illustrating them in the drawings, charts, and photos. Written specifically for the school science curriculum, the "Encyclopedia" offers a complete overview of the earth sciences. Students and readers without a technical background will feel comfortable with the text, but the authors have also been careful to provide thorough information to satisfy a teacher's curiosity or need for information. A hybrid of various discilplines, the earth sciences encompasses not only the sciences of the solid Earth but also the oceanographic, atmospheric sciences and biological sciences but also the study of our solar system and its place in the galaxy and the universe.
