Recommended Summer Reading

If you have not done so before, Eyes in the Sky recommends you visit the National Academies Press (NAP). The National Academies Press publishes reports issued by the National Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Engineering, the Institute of Medicine, and the National Research Council. NAP makes thousands of books available to read online or download in PDF format for free.

Here are some recommended books for your summer reading fun!

• Earth Observations from Space: The First 50 Years of Scientific Achievements (2008)
• Satellite Observations to Benefit Science and Society: Recommended Missions for the Next Decade (2008)
• Earth Science and Applications from Space: National Imperatives for the Next Decade and Beyond (2007)
• Contributions of Land Remote Sensing for Decisions About Food Security and Human Health: Workshop Report (2007)

This report is not from the National Academies Press, but would also make excellent summer reading.

• EPA's 2008 Report on the Environment
