For lab courses in Physical Geology.A top-seller for 35 years running with over one million copies sold, this lab manual represents by far the best collection of photos of rocks, and minerals, and one of the best compilations of exercises available. With exercises using maps, aerial photos, satellite imagery, and other materials, the Eleventh Edition of this classic manual provides exercises that encompass all the major geologic processes as well as the identification of rocks and minerals.
This book was amazingly crappy at actually teaching anything. Without a very attentive geology lab teacher, the exercises found in this overpriced volume are worthless. The binding is terrible as well, with pages falling out almost the first day.
