The planet we live on The beginnings of the Earth Sciences
This book, like the others in the Series, is written in simple English the language most widely used in science and technology. It provides an introduction to the study of Earth science, but `Earth science' is interpreted differently in different countries. In some regions of the Earth, such as on the Pacific margins, it usually covers all the science relating to the Earth, including geology, meteorology, oceanography, geomorphology and soil science. It therefore covers much of physical geography in these regions, where geography is often not a strong school subject. In other countries `Earth science' has a rather narrower definition, largely covering only geology, whilst other aspects of `Earth science' are covered in geography. Nevertheless, wherever on Earth this book is being read, if you want to study `Earth science' in Higher Education, at College or University, you will study mainly geology. So this book has been written as an introductory guide to geology, to interest you in the subject and to enthuse you to study geology at higher levels.
