Customer Reviews

An easy to follow, but very informative book for all levels.

This book covers the main issues of Limnology, and compiles them into an easy to read, well descriptive text. Also includes good diagrams for the more complicated aspects. Suitable for those with a fair knowledge of Biology and Chemistry.

Excellent textbook for those interested in lakes and streams

I enjoyed this textbook. Unlike most texts it was engaging AND informative. The text and diagrams are well integrated and a number of important concepts are covered well. This text could be improved by adding additional color photographs.

Book is well done, perhaps too technical

Well done, explanations at times are a little too technical, fun book to read
