Exploring Agriscience

First of all, I wasn't aware you could rent textbooks from Amazon. Love this idea. Rented this for my child when they forgot their Ag book at school and had to finish an assignment that night. Nice to have a back up in case it happens again. I would recommend this service.

Using this book to teach agri-science class to high school students in a special education setting.

Loved the book! Very smooth transaction.

Exploring Agriscience is a great textbook and resource for middle school students. All the information is based on current scientific research and up to date statistical information. I can recommend this text with full confidence.

I edited the latest edition of Exploring Agriscience, and if you are a teacher do not buy it. It is so rife with errors as to be useless. This author would have you believe that all hormones, steroids, and chemicals used by the dairy and meat industry are safe. He would have you not to worry about any of the pesticides and that people are just worry over nothing. He also concludes that the organic industry is a waste of money, time, and effort, and that no proof exists that organic food is better than mass produced food.If an adult read this book, I would assume he/she would be able to read between the lines. However, an 8th grader (this book's audience) will not know that he/she is being fed industry propaganda.Please think twice about buying this book for your students unless you are prepared to undo much of the damage it incurs.

Great textbook, arrived in good shape.
