Description
This text, which includes the same information as the market-leading Physical Geology 9th edition, is for the professor who wants to use the same valuable information and engaging format but in a different teaching sequence. Coverage of plate tectonics is moved to the beginning of the book.. The beautiful new art program and interactive writing style will grab your students' attention and further their interest in the subject. - To help students visualize and comprehend difficult concepts, the art program has been revamped by enhancing over 150 figures, many as 3-dimensional art. - Environmental Geology boxes show how material pertaining to physical geology relates to environmental concerns, such as oil spills, exploiting natural resources and mitigating natural disasters. - Astrogeology boxes relate topics discussed in the text to what has been discovered on other planets.
