This beautifully illustrated book reveals the astounding variety

and beauty of the rocks and minerals all around us. Many stunning

images show rocks from deep within Earth, rocks created and altered

by heating and melting, rocks ejected from volcanoes, rocks shaped

by erosion at Earth's surface, and extraterrestrial rocks that have

crashed into Earth. These spectacular photographs are accompanied

by clear and non-technical explanations of the main processes

responsible for creating rocks and minerals. This book is for

everyone interested in natural history, especially those who visit

museums and national parks. The book can also be used as an

introductory textbook for school students, and for non-science

major undergraduate students. Earth scientists will also be

thrilled by this stunning collection of images.
