The perfect manual for the lab when studying Earth Science or Physical Geology! The experiments featured in this lab manual teach and reinforce the core skills that characterize the Earth Sciences and illustrate how the scientific method works. Full of engaging activities that are designed to help readers develop data-gathering skills, such as mineral and rock identification, and data-analysis skills, the manual uses clear and easy-to-understand graphs and simple calculations. The authors also introduce readers to the graphical analysis of data via maps and sections that are characteristic of the earth sciences, helping readers develop the skills they need to "read" topographic, geologic, and meteorological maps. Using this manual in conjunction with the interactive experience of a lab, readers learn to understand aerial and satellite images, and perceive the importance of stratigraphic columns, geologic sections, and seismic waves.

Used book but in good condition!

I rented this book instead of buying it as it will only get used lightly for the 3 month period. It arrived as advertised and a good shape. Definitely recommend using this service if you would like to save money.

Missing pages
Reviewed in the United States on 5 October 2015Verified Purchase
Needed this book for a Geology 101 class... Was in good condition until I noticed some of the pages were ripped out and missing. Luckily my professor has been photo copying the labs otherwise I would have been screwed. Would have been nice if this flaw was mentioned before I bought the book.

Book is horrible
Reviewed in the United States on 10 April 2012Verified Purchase
Got it for class and it was hardly used in correlation with the teachings. The subjects in the book are all junk and to be honest I would have learned more online. WORST BOOK EVER. Thanks.
