Reader ReviewsI received the book originally in 1984 as a gift when I started my undergraduate degree in Earth Sciences. I made use of it as a reference and study guide throughout my university career and now my wife uses it for her lecture materials. The text is easily readable and not too technical for the layman. The plates and diagrams are appropriate and easy to follow. The overall organisation of the book is well thought out. A pity it is out of print, but a worthy addition to any library.
