520 $aThe Friedland and Relyea advantage. Built from the ground up specifically for the AP Environmental Science course, Friedland and Relyea Environmental Science for AP offers complete coverage of the AP course using the same terminology that students will see on the AP Environmental Science exam. This text provides teachers with the scientific rigor they expect, a balanced approach to the material, and an organization that mirrors the AP topic outline, as shown on the correlation grid in the front of this text. Students benefit from real-world examples, engaging case studies, and numerous pedagogical features helping to prepare them for the exam. - Back cover.
