The difference from Wetland Ecosystems is that this is more about the properties of wetlands as a whole, like where they are, what their chemistry is like, what people get from them and how people modify them, and so on.

I read this book and found it absolutely disgusting. And I love dick and fart jokes.

I read this for my wetlands week in reading class. I did not enjoy it very much and found it extremely boring. Although it does bring up some important facts, I was not impressed with this book.
