5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Introductory Undergraduate Geology Textbook
Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2001
The textbook is very well written and beautifully and effectively illustrated. Critical topics, especially plate tectonics, are thoroughly discussed. The review questions at the end of the chapters are very useful for recitations and laboratories. The glossary is also helpful, but not all bolded terms in the text (such as theory and hypothesis) are located in the glossary. The appendices include mineral identification tables, unit conversions, and information on topographic and geologic maps. The third edition has been extensively reorganized and most of the changes are definite improvements of an already superior textbook. One negative point: one of my students had a malfunctioning CD in her copy of the third edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars A nice casual book!
Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 1999
I took a base-level intro course on geology and we used this book, and I found it to be very straight forward and casual. The soft cover was durable and easy to manipulate....which means a lot when you have to make the most of minimal space!

4.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous Product, Good Packaging
Reviewed in India on February 2, 2024

Although the packaging was good, still the product was damaged. It is mentioned in the product that a CD is free with every book. The CD cover is there but the CD is missing.
The page quality is fabulous, laminated and coloured. Happy with the purchase.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Book for anyone who is interested in a geology or geographical subject
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 1, 2013
Verified Purchase
The Book arrived before the time stated which was great and there were no other problems with the book. The book itself is great for people looking to learn or study more about Geology. My lecturer recommended this book and you don't need any previous scientific knowledge or foundation before reading this book. Enjoy.
