Lucky indeed are the students taking Richard Turco's course and using his book Earth Under Siege: From Air Pollution to Global Change. They have an enthusiastic and communicative lecturer who is a true authority in his field and who passionately devotes his efforts to enlightening his students. The
passion is evident in the text, but it never interferes with the rigor of the material presented. --American Geophysical Union
