| Summary |
This revised edition gives a straightforward introduction to stereographic projection techniques and uses examples, illustrations and exercises to encourage students to visualise geological problems in three dimensions. It will provide students of geology and civil engineering with an indispensable guide to the analysis and interpretation of field orientation data. |
