Earth: Portrait of a Planet (Fourth International Student Edition)

Stephen Marshak's spectacular geology text for undergraduate, non-science majors is the number-one selling text in the world.

This new edition will only enhance its success. It has been thoroughly revised to ensure current coverage of all major topics, especially earthquakes (including the disaster in Haiti in 2010), volcanoes, and climate change. The drawn art represents the state of the art and is both pedagogically innovative and a feast for the eyes. The Google Earth exercises provide virtual field trips to the entire world.
