Editorial Review:
This is a laboratory manual for undergraduate courses in structural geology and geophysics, designed to be used in conjunction with a structural geology textbook. The emphasis is on geological mapping, through a series of exercises directed toward analyzing the structural form and evolution of a single field area. This approach approximates to the procedures actually used by workers in the field. Tear-out sheets and punched holes enable students to hand in exercises and bind answers.

Average Customer Rating: 
Poor undergrad textbook 2003-10-15
Examples are poorly laid out in the text, and the questions seldom follow from what has been shown in the text. Not a useful learning tool at all.
Structural Analysis & Synthesis: A Laboratory Course in Stru 2001-07-10
This lab manual was required for our structural geology course given at the California State University, Dominguez Hills. In general, the book is not well laid out and there are too few problems to work. In order to become proficient one must work many types of problems. The author does not give enough examples of how to solve problems using both graphical then mathematical techniques. For example, a three-point problem can be solved by graphical or mathematical methods. Additionally, the book requires the reader to move between pages to extract the necessary information to solve a problem. This makes the book appear vague or confusing at times. The book is weak in areas that are of prime importance to geologists such as 3 point problems, thickness problems, out crop patterns, etc. These areas are important because they are used regularly in the interpretation of geology. Additionally, these problems are also found on many Registered Geology examination given by various states.
This was my lab book 2000-05-25
BAD. I had to use this for lab this quarter. The problems were on one page, the information and maps to work it were sometimes two pages prior to, or after it. Bad layout. Far too much page flipping. This book also didn't give very good examples, in such that they would give a very elementary example, and give significantly more complex problems to work, without any farther explaination. This area of Geology is difficult enough for us poor undergrads coming up without having this book to throw us off track.
