The two primary areas of study - sedimentary rocks and stratigraphy - are presented in this sleek, complete and up-to-date undergraduate text. Background principles in chemistry, physics and structure are introduced as needed, so that the authors' lean, lively approach and focus on soft rock geology principles are preserved. The book contains the latest information on sequence stratigraphy and seismic stratigraphy. This year's best introductory text in sedimentology. New Scientist, 1996

Required Text for Sedimentary & Stratigraphy
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
This was a required textbook for an sedimentary and structures undergrad geology class. The images are black and white, but the book is still useful.
Well-written, informative sediment and stratigraphy text

This is a very good, thorough, and informative text that covers all the basics of sedimentology and stratigraphy. It is frequently used as a textbook in such classes, including when I took it at Baylor University. It is easy to understand, well-organized, and very clear.
