Description

Historical Geology provides up-to-date and expanded coverage of the metamorphic span of Earth's history as told through its fossils, rocks, and species, from the very origins of the planet to the current Holocene interglacial period. An introductory chapter details basic geologic concepts, followed by chapters - organized according to different geologic time periods - that chronicle the emergence of each successive group of plants and animals.
