About this product

Product Information

Excerpt from Dynamic Geology (With References to Structural Phemena in Their Relation to Processes): A Recitation Text This volume is intended to be used as a recitation text in a course of Dynamic Geology consisting of lectures, laboratory and field observations, and recitation periods. The broader aspects of the subject and its discussional phases may well be presented in lectures with numerous illustrations. Actual experience and kwledge of the material of Geology ought to be gained in the laboratory and by field studies. It is, however, difficult to convey by word of mouth, either in the lecture room or field where students need to take tes while listening, the definite concepts and exact relations that comprise a large body of the science. This can be done much better by means of the diagrams and precise phrases of a printed text since these can be gone over again and again until a given point is clearly understood and t involved in misconceptions due to the speakers language or faulty hearing on part of the student. It is, therefore, intended that students study this text paragraph by paragraph and diagram by diagram and be prepared, at the recitation periods, to give exact and confident answers to questions on the content of the sections assigned. In this way and only in this way can a sound basic kwledge of the subject be gained. The lectures and field experience will then serve to broadly illuminate, point out the wider applications and the limitations of the text definitions. This special text on Dynamic Geology is necessary because the regular elementary geology texts on the market include and intermingle in their chapters consideration of all the other sub-divisions of Geology, viz. Mineralogy, Petrography, Stratigraphy, Paleontology, Ecomic Geology, and Physiography. In the case of Physiography especially this causes confusion and ought to be avoided. Further, Dynamic Geology deals primarily with the processes operative on and in the earth, and a kwledge of these is essential to a proper and appreciative understanding of the other phases of geology. Since in nature, however, there are exact boundaries; and one natural science, or phase of it, must, therefore, overlap others; so in Dynamic Geology also there must be occasional excursions into, and consideration of some of the other branches of the general subject.
