Illus. with full-color photos. With the help of eye-opening NASA photos of the earth, the authors explain some of the relationships among the earth's physical systems--including the oceans, atmosphere, and climate--and icecaps, landmasses, and weather systems. They go on to explore the place life occupies on earth, from plankton in the oceans to human beings everywhere, whose impact on the planet is visible even from space. "The handsome presentation is inviting, informative, and intelligent."--Horn Book.
