Reviews:

Very self-explanatory, almost hand-holding
which can help a great deal in a fast paced structure class! All concepts are well laid out, clear and understandable.


Difficult Book for Undergraduates with no experience
The book is an excellent book for advanced students of structural geology and faculty. The book may be a bit too fast for beginners. I personally like the book because i have a little background in structural geology. But I know undergraduate students who have struggled with this book. I feel this book should be read after going through books by Twiss and Moores or Davis and Reynolds.
I am in no way against this book. It provides an interesting reading for a relatively advanced reader and this book is indeed at present one of the very good books available.
