Dieses Buch ist ein Bestimmungsatlas, der hilft, Minerale, Gesteine und die wichtigsten Fossilgruppen im Gelände zu erkennen und zu beschreiben. Aber nicht nur das. Zusätzlich wird eine Reihe von wichtigen geologischen Strukturen beschrieben und in zahlreichen Fotos dargestellt. Dadurch werden Sie eingeladen, die Geologie hinter Landschaften und Gesteinen draußen im Gelände aufzuspüren. Denn die Geologie ist eine Wissenschaft, die erst richtig lebendig wird beim Wandern in der Natur, z. B. an der Küste oder durch Nationalparks. Mit wenig Wissen werde Sie die Landschaft anders erleben. Die Gesteine werden quasi lebendig und Sie werden die Geschichte wie ein Buch lesen können und die Vielfalt und Komplexität von geologischen Prozessen verstehen. Solche Prozesse – ein Wechselspiel von Magmatismus, Tektonik, Metamorphose, Klima und Sedimentation – haben die heutige Erdoberfläche geformt. Das Buch wendet sich an die geologisch interessierten Leser und Studierende, denen das Werk als Begleiter bei Ausflügen durch die Natur gute Dienste leisten wird.
