Description Ideal for undergraduates with little or no science background, Earth Science is a student-friendly overview of our physical environment that offers balanced, up-to-date coverage of geology, oceanography, astronomy, and meteorology. The authors focus on readability, with clear, example-driven explanations of concepts and events. The Thirteenth Edition incorporates a new active learning approach, a fully updated visual program, and is available for the first time with MasteringGeology—the most complete, easy-to-use, engaging tutorial and assessment tool available, and also entirely new to the Earth science course. Writing style—The language of this book is straightforward and written to be understood. Clear, readable discussions with a minimum of technical language are the rule. Art—Dennis Tasa, a gifted artist and respected geoscience illustrator, continues his outstanding illustrations in this edition.
Truly an extension of the written story of geology, Tasa’s illustrations now show greater color and shading contrasts, more “narration,” and additional photo comparisons to guide students more clearly than ever before. Dependability—Without question, Tarbuck and Lutgens textbooks have an unblemished reputation as the most dependable texts for geology and Earth science.
Instructors can count on having a well-written, reliable book and thoroughly integrated and tested supplementary resources. GEODe: Earth Science—Now found within MasteringGeology, GEODe: Earth Science provides narrated tutorials that integrate photography, animations, and video for interactive reinforcement of key concepts. Created by Dennis Tasa, GEODe is an excellent resource for visual and active learning. Thematic approach—Three themes that recur throughout the text—“Earth as a System,” “People and the Environment,” and “Understanding Earth”—help to organize and connect concepts that may otherwise seem disparate.
Systems perspective—Concepts are presented in the context of Earth as a system, consisting of many separate but interconnected parts in a way that introductory, non-science students can consume and manage. Used by over one million science students, the Mastering platform is the most effective and widely used online tutorial, homework, and assessment system for the sciences. MasteringGeology provides a quick and easy start to the course, particularly for new instructors, and creates an “electronic TA” in a course where TAs are often unavailable. The textbook is incorporated in such a way that it remains integral to the course.
About the Author(s) Fred Lutgens and Ed Tarbuck have been good friends and colleagues since 1970. Between them, they have more than 57 years of experience teaching geology to undergraduates, and both have been recognized with awards as excellent and inspiring professors.
They share a special interest in introducing geology to beginning students and a belief in the value of field experiences for students of all levels. Lutgens and Tarbuck published their first college text, Earth Science, in 1976.
That book, winner of the McGuffy Award from the Text and Academic Authors Association, is now going into its tenth edition. In 1983, as the first edition of Earth was being prepared, gifted geology illustrator Dennis Tasa joined the author team.
Since then the three have collaborated on more than twenty projects. Not only do Tarbuck, Lutgens, and Tasa work well together creatively; they also enjoy spending time in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains near Tasa’s New Mexico studio.
Tarbuck enjoys downhill skiing in Colorado, fly fishing near his childhood home in Northern Minnesota, and spending time in the Cascades. Lutgens is an avid runner, and when he can make the time, truly enjoys hiking the canyons of the Colorado Plateau. Although Lutgens and Tarbuck think alike on many issues, they don’t agree on everything. Lutgens is devoted to jazz and classical music, whereas Tarbuck prefers pop artists or a good country station.

Concepts in review are end-of-chapter features that coordinate with Focus on Concepts, beginning chapter features. This feature provides a concise overview of key ideas by using photos, diagrams and questions that test students’ understanding of core concepts. Focus on Concepts is a numbered learning objective feature that corresponds to each major section of the chapter and identifies the knowledge and skills that students should master by the end of the chapter.
This feature helps students prioritize key concepts. Concepts Checks: Within each chapter, every major section concludes with “Concept Checks” that allow students to monitor their understanding and comprehension of significant facts and ideas. Give It Some Thought (GIST) These questions and problems are found at the end of each chapter and challenge learners by involving them in activities that require higher order thinking skills that include the synthesis, analysis, and application of material in the chapter. Examining Earth Systems are chapter-concluding sections that present problems and questionsintended to develop awareness and appreciation for some of the Earth systems’ many interrelationships. Use art that teaches. NEW! Illustrations: Dennis Tasa, a gifted artist and respected geoscience illustrator, continues adding outstanding illustrations in this edition.
