Book Description

0131447866 978-0131447868 July 24, 2004 6
This book covers topics essential to historical geology. The manual presents fundamental concepts of historical geology by providing realistic situations to which geologic concepts and data apply. This application of principles to concrete situations and practical problems instills a strong sense of the purpose of geologic study. KEY TOPICS: This book allows readers to visualize how geologic data are collected, tabulated, synthesized, interpreted, and applied to real-world geologic problems. Covering important concepts of ordering geological events and physical stratigraphy, the book also provides sections on plate tectonics and paleontology as well as extensive geologic maps with explanations. The fifth edition of Historical Geology, Interpretations and Applications has been revised to include new problems and a relocation of some problems closer to their explanatory material. It also includes four new geologic maps that cover geologic features in greater detail. A valuable reference book for any reader interested in historical geology.

1.0 out of 5 stars Bad Seller!!!!, August 9, 2009
This review is from: Historical Geology: Interpretations and Applications (6th Edition) (Spiral-bound)
Paid for the book and never recieved it. Purchased this book for a class that I was enrolled in and guess what it never came. Not a single reply as to where or when it would be shipped. I tried to contact the seller multiple times without any reply's on where the book was. I have submitted for my money back from Amazon and hopefully I can get it back. Would not ever recommend this seller!!!!

This review is from: Historical Geology: Interpretations and Applications (6th Edition) (Spiral-bound)
I ordered a new book from Amazon few days ago. When I received it, it was missing five pages. They had been torn out. This book was advertised as new. Whoever orders this book or any other from Amazon should beware! I guess even Amazon can't always be trusted!!!!
