Author Description

This full colour 3rd edition of The Physical Environment offers a re-designed page layout to aid pupil understanding and focus at all three levels of Standard Grade. As in previous editions, each topic is studied through single, extended case studies which allow pupils to participate and provide in-depth development of major themes. The volume covers weather, mapwork, river and glacial landforms and related physical processes, climate and vegetation. The text also includes questions to test knowledge and understanding and to give practice in evaluating and investigating skills.
