Anotace:	Complete coverage of the basic principles underlying each geological speciality is offered in this revision of a physical/historical geology text. Historical perspectives are woven throughout the text, demonstrating the link between the two branches of the field. This edition has been updated and revised and includes a new chapter on structural geology, an expanded discussion of energy, and separate treatments of metamorphic and sedimentary rocks. Discussions of physical geology emphasize internal processes and products in order to expose students to the dynamics of earthquakes and plate tectonics. It also features more illustrations designed to emphasize what students would actually see in the field. Each chapter includes a listing of key terms, a summary of major ideas discussed, numerous exercises, and suggested readings. Also provided are a glossary and appendixes, including rock identification charts, topographic and geologic maps, and a measurement conversion table.
