Synopsis

This introductory geology text meets the needs of those requiring a more in-depth coverage of the history of geology than other introductory texts usually provide. Alongside the essential concepts of introductory geology the text includes chapters on core topics of historical geography and includes coverage of the four major periods of Earth's history. Fascinating developments and significant discoveries are featured including eruptions, earthquakes and the global positioning system. 'Questions for Review' and 'For Further Thought' questions at the end of each chapter offer a challenging opportunity to think deeply about the implications of the material studied. In addition to the clear, lucid writing style of the author team the art programme has been designed to explain, describe, stimulate and teach. The impressive suite of ancillary materials includes a student and instructor web site, lab manual and study guide
