The little book of planet earth presents a concise description of the geological evolution of earth from its formation. Meissner describes in detailed but accessible prose not just the planet's features, but the tools that modern geologists use to explore and track the ever-changing subterranean and surface features of the planet. with a particular gift for expressing how the forces in and around our planet constantly alter the world we live in, the author introduces lay readers to the key topics in modern earth and planetary science: the creation of earth and its moon (as well as stars and other planets), the role of seismology in analyzing earth's structure, the formation of mountain ranges and basins, the role of plate tectonics, the significance of earth's magnetic field, and the complex relationship of our planet's geology to the life forms found there. eng
