Geology, Vol. 1 [of 3]
Thomas Chrowder Chamberlin and Rollin D. Salisbury
The earth's story begins not in rock but in the birth of a planet. Thomas Chamberlin opens his great geology with astronomic origins, then works through the atmosphere, hydrosphere, and lithosphere as one connected system. Ambitious and rigorous, this first volume sets the earth in its cosmic frame. For the serious student ready to study the planet whole.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
