October 18, 2006: This Earth Science review book is well written with clear illustrations. I used it to study for the TEACHING PRAXIS II general science exams (10431 & 10432). I got ALL of the questions in Earth Science CORRECT, even though I have not had an Earth Science Course in 20 years! The material is consise and well written. Great for a student currently taking an Earth Science class or anyone needing a review of Earth Science.
