About Book

Review
"Thorough and engaging...the topics are interconnected and interwoven with each other in a way that I have not found in other texts. The writing style and illustration program are also definite strengths."

Book Description

To effectively introduce core concepts, this first-year survey text shifts the focus from learning terminology to understanding—and observing—the range of earth's geologic processes.

At the end of every chapter, new On-the-Web activities encourage the use of web resources, Learning Actively exercises challenge students to apply their knowledge to their surroundings, and Chapter Summaries are now shorter to allow for faster review.

The art program presents a level of detail appropriate for introductory students, and demonstrates naturalism as well as technical accuracy—ensuring that the basics are skillfully communicated.
Geology at a Glance sections act as quick, visual reference tools summarizing difficult ideas using figures, photos, and flow charts.
