This is a discount Black and white version. Some images may be unclear, please see BCCampus website for the digital version.This book was born out of a 2014 meeting of earth science educators representing most of the universities and colleges in British Columbia, and nurtured by a widely shared frustration that many students are not thriving in courses because textbooks have become too expensive for them to buy. But the real inspiration comes from a fascination for the spectacular geology of western Canada and the many decades that the author spent exploring this region along with colleagues, students, family, and friends. My goal has been to provide an accessible and comprehensive guide to the important topics of geology, richly illustrated with examples from western Canada. Although this text is intended to complement a typical first-year course in physical geology, its contents could be applied to numerous other related courses.

Rocks break down through the processes of erosion and weathering. Readers will learn through graphic organizers and simple, at-level text what causes erosion and weathering, and how this process is part of the rock cycle. Chapters explore topics such as how erosion and weathering create landforms and form sediment. The human role in erosion and weathering is also explained: both how human actions can exacerbate these processes and steps people take to slow them down. Videos, photographs, and graphic organizers create an enhanced experience in the interactive eBook version. These features supplement the print version with additional high-interest information.
