Energy, Society and Environment (Routledge Introductions to Environment: Environment and Society Texts) Review
I ordered this book for one of my daughter's college courses. The book was fine, but I warn against choosing the expidited shipping option. My order was filled by Caiman_outlet. I payed extra because she needed it asap. I was told it would be 4-6 days but I did not receive my order for 21 days. Needless to say, it put her way behind in her class. Adding to my frustration was my inability to speak to anyone directly at the distributer. I was offered a partial refund of my shipping cost, but by the time I'm done jumping through their hoops, it's not even worth my time.
