Ecology, Development, & Sustainability (Printed + eBook copies included)

A lab manual for a college-level introductory course in Environmental Science that incorporates policy evaluation and cost analysis. All data are either generated by the students or collected by the students from outside sources (such as government and NGO websites). To facilitate balance, the manual is organized into three sections that are summarized in the title; the natural environment, the man-made environment, and strategies for maintaining a more viable relationship between these two components.

PLEASE NOTE THAT AN EBOOK VERSION IS INCLUDED WITH THE PRINTED VERSION.

Eventually, he made his way back to college and earned a Ph.D. in zoology at Texas A&M University in 1999. Dr. Chaves currently teaches biology, chemistry, and environmental science in the Washington D.C. area, and uses his spare time to write articles on science and education policy.
