During the past century, and most par-ticularly in the decades following World War II there has been a tremendous ex-pansion of the impact of science on everyday life. Explanations of scientific phenomena, particularly those of catastrophic effect on society, are given at all levels of education, science dominates the news media, most households make use of products that are the result of appli…
To geologist, the field is where rocks or soils can be observed in place, and field geology consist of the methods used to examines and interpret structures and materials at the outcrop. Field studies are primary means of obtaining geologic knowledge. Some studies may be as simple as visiting a single outcrop or quarry, making notes and sketches on the relations between certain rocks, and colle…
Structural Geology may be defined as a study of the framework of the earth’s crust and the causes that are distorting it. However, in its broader phases, structural geology is not limited merely to crumplings and fractures of the crust. Although we see only a thin rin and although information about the unseen vast interior must, of necessity, be based on indirect evidence – yet it is deep-s…
Structural Geology brings together in condensed form the fundamentals of the geology of primary and secondary forms of occurrence of rocks sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic. It outlines the main principles of tectonics physics and set out the basic mechanism of folding and faulting. A classification of structural form is given and the processes governing their historical, mechanical and regi…
Geology has evolved greatly since I wrote the manual of field geology in the 1950’s. Advances in theory have transformed the formation mapping of the time into increasingly broader and more interpretive studies. We have much to seek at the outcrop and the rising costs of field work compel us to recognize key features the first time around.

Buku ini membahas mengenai isu terkini di Indonesia tentang geologi tata lingkungan untuk pembangungan berkelanjutan, pemahaman geologi tata lingkungan, geologi tata lingkungan untuk penataan ruang, pengelolaan lingkungan geologi seperti pengelolaan air tanah, dan pengelolaan lingkungan pada zona penurunan muka tanah dan likuefaksi, pemanfaatan dan pengelolaan lingkungan pada kawasan lindung ge…
Kamus ini adalah hasil pemutakhiran kata dan istilah di bidang geologi dan ranah rinangkun seperti pertambangan, teknik sipil. dan lingkungan. Terbitan terakhir kumpulan seperti ini berlangsung hampir dua dasawarsa yang lalu. Dalam ketiadaan kamus rujukan, banyak penulis yang kemudian terpaksa menggunakan apa saja yang terjangkau. Selain itu, banyak naskah dan dokumen yang memerlukan padanan…
It is true that these and other phases of technical work have received an impetus under the exigencies of petroleum geology but they are none the less important in many other line of geological research both theoretical and commercial. They are of particular concern to the student of structural and field geology since they afford useful tool for the more thorough study of subsurface conditions…
