The author explains how to read geological maps and how to interpret the information they provide. He also discusses the different types of geological features that can be observed in the field, such as sedimentary layers, volcanic rocks, and metamorphic rocks.Throughout the book, the author provides numerous illustrations and diagrams to help students understand the concepts being discussed. He also includes numerous examples of geological features from around the world, providing students with a global perspective on the subject matter.Overall, Structural And Field Geology For Students Of Pure And Applied Science is a comprehensive and informative book that provides students with a solid foundation in the principles of structural and field geology.
