This innovative volume combines scientific information about volcanoes with challenging math problems. Readers learn about historical disasters, volcanologists, plate tectonics, and even “Out-of-This-World Eruptions” in space. A “Real World Math Challenge” box appears in each chapter, and a concluding science activity explains how to build a volcano with readily available materials. Color photos break up the text. Back matter includes answers to the math problems, a glossary, reading and Web site recommendations, and an index. A valuable addition.
