Review
The scope of the glossary is
geology and geophysics in the broadest annotation and reaches the interfaces with archeology, astrogeology, climatology, oceanography, and soil science.
EOS
A huge book If what you want to know in terms of definitions or even short explanations is not here, then it is probably of such miniscule importance that it really doesn't matter anyway highly recommended.

Reader Reviews
I've used various editions of this book throughout my 35-year career as an engineering geologist. This is THE definitive geological dictionary in the English language (and I suspect any other language). Nothing else comes remotely close.
