This best-selling historical geology text provides an excellent balance of basic geology and palaeontology. The new eighth edition provides rich, authoritative coverage of the history of the Earth, offering the most comprehensive history in the discipline today. It maintains its strong approach to stratigraphy and palaeontology that other texts have lost. The text`s paleogeographic maps are excellent in detail and are a vital component in understanding the earth`s history.

Through six editions, Harold Levin`s `The Earth through Time` has sought to prove studying the ancient world doesn`t have to be a passive experience. Instead, the text encourages you to make the Earth`s history your own and to get involved in the material.
