Synopsis

We all live on the Earth... but how many of us are aware of all the processes that shape - and sometimes shake - its surface? Teach Yourself Geology is a comprehensive introduction to the nature and history of the Earth, ranging from volcanoes to the implications of our limited natural resources.

Featuring extensive black and white and colour illustrations, Teach Yourself Geology covers:

- the origin and evolution of the Earth

- rocks, minerals and fossils

- key geological processes

- earthquakes and volcanoes

- geology on other planets

- how to carry out field work.
