โฆ Synopsis
One of the best-kept secrets in geology is this handy compilation of geological information. The essential reference for geoscientists in the field, office, or lab, this book provides quick reference for the key metrics and concepts, as well as short tutorials on subjects that may not be familiar to all geoscientists. The book covers diverse subjects, from geophysics to geologic map symbols to GPS usage, and everything in between. Now in full color, the book uses color photos when possible to better illustrate geology in the real world. New to this printing is the new and revised 2009 Geologic Timescale published by the Geological Society of America.
