Readers of Earth in Space and Time will become more critical interpreters of scientific ideas related to the Earth and will therefore make informed decisions in the future.  The publication uses a "story book" format that starts at the beginning of everything and moves step-by-step to current times.  Suitable for non-science majors who want to fulfill their science requirement, students will learn the integral role that earth science has in everything we produce, manufacture, and consume.  The publication includes online resource links, figures, photos, and charts.

In addition, students are provided access to a study app that is available on the Apple iTunes and Google Play stores.  The study app provides students with a variety of study tools that are customized to the publication.  It includes customized study sections, flash cards, quizzes, explanations of incorrect answers, and analysis of personal performance.
