Synopsis
Learn about the geological history of the Earth from the book, Earth: Portrait of a Planet (2007). Covering all topics like earthquakes volcanoes, and climate change, the book by Stephen Marshak has been revised to include the latest information on these topics. Author, Stephen Marshak, is a Professor of Geology and the Head of the Department of Geology at the University of Illinois. Giving the example of Haiti in 2010, the author of this geology book gives a true account of the disaster. The three major intellectual revolutions in Earth Sciences that have taken place in the last forty years have been included in Earth: Portrait of a Planet (2007). These major revolutions mentioned in the book by Stephen Marshak are the theory of plate tectonics, the Earth-Systems-Science synthesis, and the connection between the evolution of life and the evolution of the Earth itself. The Google Earth exercise included in this geology book takes you on a virtual world trip.
