"This is a completely revised edition of Applied Sedimentology, first published in
1988. Like its precursor, it describes sediments from sand grains to sedimentary basins.
Applied Sedimentology is written principally for senior undergraduate and postgraduate
students of earth science and engineering. It may also, however, prove useful to more
mature readers who explore and exploit the sedimentary rocks for fossil fuels and
mineral deposits."--Jacket
