5.0 out of 5 stars
A nice, easy-to-use lab manual,
By A Customer
This review is from: Physical Geology (Spiral-bound)
This lab manual addresses a variety of geology topics presented in a simple, easy to undertand style. Each chapter has the main concepts italicized with definitons following. It also has a glossary at the end for explaining some of the common geologic terms. Exercises are put to assist students better understand major geologic concepts. The book contains tables, diagrams, and colored pictures presented in an interesting pattern and serve as tools for visual aids. It is difinetly the lab manual you need as a non-geology major student. It also helps refreshing your baby geology information if you are a geology student. However, to get the most out of this book, you need to have some lab materials, such as, rocks, maps, etc..., available particulary for the rocks and minerals part.

Not What I Expected.,

This review is from: Laboratory Manual for Physical Geology by James Zumberge (Spiral-bound)
The lab book was labled as in "new" condition, which was not exactly true. It had all its pages and looks nice on the outside but inside many of the lab exercises had already been done for me. I am a college student and did not appreciate that the book was already filled out. I was very dissappointed to not only find that the book was labled new when it was not but that the answers were mostly in pen so i could not get rid of them. now as a result my work looks sloppy and unproffesional. thanks a lot.

Make sure all pages are there and intact, found out after the fact that the lab book assignments were to be turned in so a used book was not acceptable.
