Both books have appealing color photographs and an attractive design that will appeal to general readers as well as to those interested in pursuing these exciting careers."School Library Journal, August 2009"This is one of the few books I've ever reviewed that I couldn't put down . . . The first chapter is a great background on the history of early volcano exploration. Each chapter examines a different aspect of volcano science, and the scholastic requirements of the careers are explained . . . The reading flows so easily that younger students with an interest in science would enjoy the book . . ."National Science Teachers Association Recommends Web site, posted February 19, 2009 Loading… Other books in Wild Science Careers 1 Loading… Other books from the authors 1234 Loading… Library Bound Book: 978-0-7660-3049-7 List Price: $35.93 Discount Price: $26.95 + Add to wish list Please log in Log in or register to create a wish list.
