Query: Not a Text Book

I had a class in Panama taught out of this book. I don't recommend it for that purpose. If you're interested in learning some general stuff about t he tropics, it's great (If you can stand the author's personality). I find the book to be awkwardly organized and overly repetitive. It's three time's as long as it needs to be for the information it contains. The information within is a mixture of personal observations and widely accepted facts without clearly distinguishing which are which. Save your money, get something else.
