Description
The fourth edition has been updated to include real-world topics and events in every exercise, which appeal to both science and non-science students. Examples: A biblical illustration of the six-day Creation (in Geologic Time), the Sumatra tsunami (in Earthquakes), hurricane Katrina (in Coastal Processes and Problems).

Questions are highlighted and embedded within the text, creating a dialog format and an inquiry-based learning environment. Little or no lecture is required to get students started on the exercise du jour. Minimal introductory narrative text precedes questions. Helpful hints accompany questions that some students might find difficult.
