The requirement for a foundation in basics imposes some necessary sequences. Motion is discussed with introducing Newtons's Laws, chemistry necessarily depends on an understanding of atomic structure, and any section of geology must include a discussion of plate tectonics. Environmental issues also help to illustrate the principles and to enliven the reading. In addition to the features mentioned above, the following study aids are provided: * Chapter summaries. Each chapter is concluded with a short summary that serves as an aid for easy review of the text. The summary is supplemented with a checklist of key words. * Glossary. An extensive glossary of terms used in the text is provided at the end of the book. * Appendix. The appendix explains significant figures and proportionality. The appendix also includes conversion formulas for temperature scales, a simple derivation of the kinetic energy equation, a slightly more mathematical treatment of the decibel scale, and tables of conversion factors and atomic weights. * Intructor's guide. An intructor's guide is also available. It includes answers to the questions at the end of each chapter, and two sample multiple choice tests for each chapter geophysics,physics,pollution Minh, 970524 Trung tâm Học liệu Trường Đại học Cần Thơ
