Geology without stratigraphy would be like life without a clock. Deciphering Earth's History: the Practice of Stratigraphy provides a practical, pragmatic and integrated guide to applying stratigraphical techniques. It covers how to systematically divide and correlate strata, determine rates and durations of Earth processes and construct geological timescales. Each technique is illustrated by worked examples.
