DESCRIPTION:
-- New Scientist, Rob Butler. Philip Allen's Earth Surface Processes is a benchmark textbook for this new generation of students and university courses and is, quite simply, outstanding
"Awesome Book" according to Mauricio M. Perillo. Earth Surface Processes by Philip A. Allen is a great book!!! Very useful!!!He does a nice working linking physical processes to sedimentary process. If you are taking Sedimentology at a middle or upper lever you want to take a look of this book.. "Earth Surface Processes review" according to Mr. N. Michael. The book as a product is very well written and it contains everything a young geologist need in terms of sedimenterary geology and the physical processes that govern the sediment transport. I highly recommend it.
Earth Surface Processes is an introductory text for those studying the dynamics of fluid and sediment transport in the environments, in the context of both present-day patterns as well as the environmental changes decipherable in the geological record. The book is divided into two parts. Earth Surface Processes fits into the literature of the broad holistic discipline of 'Earth System Science.' The author illustrates the physical principles of earth's surface processes and explains the relevant theories by quantitative practical exercises.The pioneering textbook on the "new sedimentology"One of the first textbooks to adopt
