Each book begins with a biome map and a description of the biomes of the world, then describes the climate, plants, animals, and cultures specific to the featured biome; geographic examples are interspersed. Packed with information and colorful illustrative material, the format is a well-organized if visually overwhelming cross between textbook and encyclopedia. There are seven other new books in this series. Glos., ind.
