How Does The Earth Work: Physical Geology and the Process of Science,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Its about how we know what we know. How Does Earth Work? covers the traditional breadth of introductory geology topics, but takes the nontraditional and highly effective approach of emphasizing conceptual learning of process rather than rote memorization of facts. Questions drive the development of the concepts: As with science itself, there are no answers without first asking questions. As a result, the concepts are introduced and developed in context ('If this is true, then why...?), which facilitates deeper exploration of and linking between concepts. Illustrations bear much of the weight of explanation; they are as simple as possible, thoughtfully annotated, and paired wherever possible with photos of the concept manifest in nature.Why Geology?
