From Booklist
Last revised in 2000, this dictionary intended for earth-science students briefly defines more than 3,500 terms. Pronunciation guides have been added for more than 1,500 words that students might not commonly hear, among them
isohyet, monadnock, and
pelagic. Appendixes list chemical elements and useful Web sites.
