Download or read book Historical Geology written by Reed Wicander and published by Thomson Brooks/Cole. This book was released on 2010 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HISTORICAL GEOLOGY, Sixth Edition, presents a balanced overview of the geological and biological history of Earth as a continuum of interrelated events that reflect the underlying principles and processes that have shaped our planet. Students are taught the basic geologic principles as well as how scientists apply these principles to unravel Earth’s history. Coverage includes the historical development of these basic principles and processes as well as their importance in deciphering Earth history. Three major themes -- time, evolutionary theory, and plate tectonics -- are woven together throughout the book to help students link essential material and enhance their understanding of historical geology. The Sixth Edition has been thoroughly updated to include the formation of the Earth-Moon system, information about the evolution of populations as a whole, and coverage of climate change throughout the text, placing an emphasis on what we don’t know within the historical geology field as compared to what we do know.

Book excerpt: Offering comprehensive content for the historical geology course, HISTORICAL GEOLOGY provides students with an understanding of the principles of historical geology and how these principles are applied in unraveling Earth's history. Students will learn and understand the underlying causes of why things happened and the way they did, and how all of Earth's systems and subsystems are interrelated. Students will understand the relevancy of Earth's history as part of a dynamic and complex integrated system, not as a series of isolated and unrelated events
Download or read book Historical Geology written by Jon M. Poort and published by Pearson. This book was released on 2005 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers topics essential to historical geology. The manual presents fundamental concepts of historical geology by providing realistic situations to which geologic concepts and data apply. This application of principles to concrete situations and practical problems instills a strong sense of the purpose of geologic study. KEY TOPICS: This book allows readers to visualize how geologic data are collected, tabulated, synthesized, interpreted, and applied to real-world geologic problems. Covering important concepts of ordering geological events and physical stratigraphy, the book also provides sections on plate tectonics and paleontology as well as extensive geologic maps with explanations. The fifth edition of Historical Geology, Interpretations and Applications has been revised to include new problems and a relocation of some problems closer to their explanatory material. It also includes four new geologic maps that cover geologic features in greater detail. A valuable reference book for any reader interested in historical geology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As important to modern world views as any work of Darwin, Marx, or Freud, Principles of Geology is a landmark in the history of science. In this first of three volumes, Charles Lyell (1797-1875) sets forth his powerful uniformitarian argument: processes now visibly acting in the natural world are essentially the same as those that have acted throughout the history of the earth, and are sufficient to account for all geological phenomena. Martin J. S. Rudwick's new Introduction, summarizing the origins of the Principles, guides the reader through the structure of the entire three-volume first edition and considers the legacy of Lyell's great work.

Download or read book An Introduction to Historical Geology With Special Reference to North America written by William J. Miller and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-15 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to Historical Geology With Special Reference to North America It is the author's hope that this book may find a place as a class-book dealing with the historical geology portion of a one-year course in general geology, and that it may also serve as a text for special courses in historical geology. An elementary knowledge of what is generally comprised under dynamical and structural geology is presupposed. It is assumed that a proper amount of laboratory and field work will be pursued in connection with the text. It will be seen that more introductory space is devoted to a discussion of the broad fundamental principles of historical geology than is customary in text-books. The experience of the author has been that careful attention to these general principles at the beginning of the subject is well repaid in satisfaction to both teacher and student when the great events of earth history are taken up in regular order. A definite plan is strictly adhered to in the discussion of each period from the Cambrian to the Tertiary inclusive. Such definiteness of presentation, in spite of some objections which may be raised against it, should greatly aid the beginner, who must constantly compare periods and note the important changes in the evolution of both land-masses and organisms. The topical arrangements are such that any desired comparisons can be readily made. A plan of treatment, the same for both the Archeozoic and Proterozoic eras, permits a ready comparison of these two. By the very nature of the subject-matter, a somewhat more special method of discussion has been necessary for the Quaternary period. Important features are the summaries of Paleozoic and Mesozoic history which will aid the student in fixing in mind the salient points in the history of those two great eras. It is believed that the two tabular summaries-one of Paleozoic life and the other of Mesozoic life-will be helpful. Group by group and period by period, from the Cambrian to the Cretaceous inclusive, the principal evolutionary changes in organisms are brought before the student at a glance by the use of these tables.
