Soft cover. Zustand: New. 3rd Edition. viii, 92 pages : illustrations, maps ; 22 cm. For its relatively small size the Isle of Man contains an abundance of geological variety. From the metamorphosed, deep marine sediments of the Manx and Dalby Groups, to Carboniferous limestones and Devonian terrestrial sandstones; from intrusiv…e granites and Tertiary dykes to submarine basalts; and from ore mineralisation to recent glacial sedimentation. The aim of the guide is to help both the professional geologist and interested amateur to investigate the rocks themselves and to put them in a modern scientific context. The guide is in two parts: the first provides an overview of the geology of the Island and tries to explain how this evolved over time. The second part describes specific localities in the form of a series of excursion itineraries. These have formed the basis of highly instructive field courses for students as well as both professional and amateur geologists. With its wide variety of geological features, mostly easily accessible on foreshores, students and leaders alike have found the Island fascinating.
