Full Description
This widely used, highly readable introduction to structural analysis is specifically designed to support the laboratory work of undergraduates in structural geology courses. The new third edition includes: * New and amended exercises and redrafted figures to improve clarity * A single fold-out map of the Bree Creek Quadrangle - a mythical site used to help students analyze various aspects of the geologic structures exposed within this quadrangle and ultimately to develop a grand synthesis * A user-friendly spiral binding ideal for work in the lab or out in the field An Instructor manual CD-ROM for this title is available. Please contact our Higher Education team at HigherEducation@wiley.com for more information.
