A bit redundant
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This title shipped more quickly than I had anticipated and, being a big fan of the 1998 edition, I started in on it right away. So, while the format and the new articles were satisfying, I was a bit miffed that there were also many articles that were re-prints from the 1998 edition. I suppose that it's an old game with textbooks and those considered supplements to them, to revise, call it a new edition, and force students to pay the premium, but with a title like "Current Perspectives in Geology" I was hoping for the latest in information. Some of the articles are dated from the 1970's. Drawing from publications that include Science, Discover, Nature, and others, I would hope that there would be enough new material in the last two years to not require as many repeats. Still, five stars for those who have not read the 1998 edition, three for those of us who were hoping for more new info.
