Essentials of Geology

Editorial Reviews
Book Description

A condensed version of Geology, 3/e, this textbook provides succinct, focused explanations of key points-ideal for non-majors who require a basic introduction to the field. Three themes (plate tectonics, environmental geology and natural resources, and planetary geology) appear repeatedly throughout the text to highlight the connections between core concepts. In addition, the authors provide examples from across North America and the globe.

• The art program incorporates a level of detail appropriate for introductory students-more effectively communicating core concepts in each figure.
• Geology at a Glance features act as quick, visual reference tools summarizing difficult ideas through figures, photos, and flow charts.
• A comprehensive suite of technology supplements facilitate both teaching and learning.
