Summary

This lab manual is accessible to science and nonscience majors and also provides a strong back­ground for geology and other science majors. Concepts carry over from one lab to the next and are reinforced so that at the end of the semester, the students have experience at interpreting the rock record and an understanding of how the process of science works.
