Kindle Edition Verified Purchase. Great basic geology book.

Not for the advanced student, but for someone with only basic geology knowledge, it fits the bill perfectly. You won't come away being able to identify minerals, but you will get a basic understanding of how they are formed and transformed. My son is using this alongside his geology class in homeschool high school and really has learned a lot with it in conjunction with his Connect the Thoughts geology curriculum. The price is great for a homeschool text book too!
