57121Physical geology laboratory text and manual : 6th ed.
Geology uses the scientific method to explain natural aspects of the Earth - for example, how mountains form or why oil resources are concentrated in some rocks and not in others. Explains how and why Earth's surface, and its interior, are constantly changing. Relates this constant change to the major geological topics of interaction of the atmosphere, water and rock, the modern theory of plate tectonics, and geologic time. These concepts form a framework of the book.
