Autorenporträt
David D. Pollard is a Professor Emeritus in Geology at Stanford University. He holds a Ph.D. in Geology from Stanford University and a Diploma of Imperial College (University of London). He has been on the faculty at Stanford since 1983, where he taught an undergraduate course in structural geology, from which this textbook emerged. He co-authored Fundamentals of Structural Geology, published by Cambridge University Press in 2005, which won the Best Publication of the Year Award from the Structural Geology and Tectonics Division of the Geological Society of America in 2007. He is a Fellow of the Geological Society of America and the American Geophysical Union.
Rezensionen
'This textbook is an excellent introduction to quantitative structural geology, showing the formation of structures using both calculus and mechanics. The book bridges the gap between descriptive structural geology books and more advanced textbooks requiring a continuum mechanics background, and will be a 'must' for all geoscientists who wish to learn how to interpret geological structures based on fundamental physical principles.' Bernhard Grasemann, University of Vienna
