Book Description
This is a new and completely revised edition of 'The Geology of Devon', first published in 1982 and reprinted three times.
Each chapter in this new edition has been thoroughly revised and rewritten to reflect the major changes in knowledge since the first edition. There are four additional chapters, on Geological Pioneers, Engineering Geology, Environmental Geology and Off-shore Geology. The book also lists all official and local sites of geological and geomorphological interest and includes an expanded reference list and a color geological map.
