  • The pioneering textbook on the "new sedimentology".

  • One of the first textbooks to adopt the Earth Systems approach to geology, developed at Penn State and Stanford.

  • Should reinvigorate more traditional courses in physical sedimentology and dynamical sedimentology.

  • Successfully marries the innovative holistic approach to Earth Systems with the traditional reductionist approach to sedimentary processes.

  • Explains both the global-scale Earth Surface System and the fluid dynamics and sedimentary transport processes that underlie this.

  • Quantitative approach is reinforced with worked examples and solutions.

  • Richly illustrated with original diagrams and a colour plate section.
