Designed in direct response to student surveys, focus groups and interviews, Hendrix's "Earth Science: An Introduction," 4th Edition, brings Earth Science to life by delivering easy-to-read text illustrated with conceptual diagrams, field photos and images from major recent events in Earth Science. The text's framework for understanding the solid Earth, oceans and atmosphere and their dynamics, emphasizes the interconnectedness of these systems with Earth's life forms, including humans. The final three chapters view Earth as a planetary body by investigating the Earth-Moon pair, solar system, Sun and surrounding universe. Current, cutting-edge research is integrated into the text, while Digging Deeper sections provide descriptions of key related topics. Conceptual diagrams, artwork, original field photos and MindTap, the digital learning solution, enables you to learn on your own terms.

Hendrix, Mark: - Marc S. Hendrix is a Professor of Geology at the University of Montana in Missoula, Montana. Growing up in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, he developed an early love of geology in the 1970s while working as a field assistant for his father, a biology professor at Gettysburg College. He earned a bachelor's degree in geology from Wittenberg University in Springfield Ohio in 1985, a master's degree in geology and geophysics from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1987 and a Ph.D. in applied earth sciences in 1992 from Stanford University, where he conducted research on the geologic record of mountain building and ancient climate in western China. As a postdoctoral researcher at Stanford, he analyzed the geologic history of Mongolia. In 1994 Dr. Hendrix joined the faculty at the University of Montana where he has developed a field-based research program focused on the geology of the northern Rocky Mountains. He and his students have published a variety of technical papers on the geology of North America, Asia and Africa, and in 2011 he authored and illustrated GEOLOGY UNDERFOOT IN YELLOWSTONE COUNTRY. Dr. Hendrix has served as an expert witness and consultant in the field of geology, and he continues to travel broadly to conduct geologic research. He lives in Missoula with his wife and two sons.
