Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heat and energy impacts all life on our planet. Energy from the sun helps plants grow and makes it possible for us to live on Earth at all, but the heat from inside Earth impacts us as well. There are many different kinds of rocks that make up Earth’s crust, and scientists now know how Earth’s energy forms and changes these rocks. Readers will learn about the volcanoes and lava that make igneous rocks, and how heating and cooling caused by energy in Earth’s core creates metamorphic rocks. They’ll also learn how water and other elements break down rocks to create sedimentary rocks and various rock formations all over the world.

Book excerpt: This is a discount Black and white version. Some images may be unclear, please see BCCampus website for the digital version.This book was born out of a 2014 meeting of earth science educators representing most of the universities and colleges in British Columbia, and nurtured by a widely shared frustration that many students are not thriving in courses because textbooks have become too expensive for them to buy. But the real inspiration comes from a fascination for the spectacular geology of western Canada and the many decades that the author spent exploring this region along with colleagues, students, family, and friends. My goal has been to provide an accessible and comprehensive guide to the important topics of geology, richly illustrated with examples from western Canada. Although this text is intended to complement a typical first-year course in physical geology, its contents could be applied to numerous other related courses.

Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered how can complex scientific topics be easily explained to your toddlers? Have you always wanted to help your children become broad-minded and intelligent people with a solid scientific understanding of the world? "The Earth for Toddlers" book series helps you communicate interesting and important topics from the various disciplines of Earth sciences that would help you and your kids understand how the biggest system we know functions - the Earth! What is the solid earth we live on made of? What makes the ocean's move? Why does climate change and how does the atmosphere actually "work"? How can continents move and why volcanoes erupt? How do we know the age of the Earth and the rocks it is made of? All these questions and more are explained and discussed in a simple and straight-forward approach that would make it crystal clear to you and your toddlers. In "The rock cycle for toddlers", we explain what are rocks and lay the foundations for the understanding of different types of rocks and their importance in shaping the solid Earth we live on. The rock cycle is one of the most basic topics in Earth sciences, which makes this book a must-have for every parent who wants his children to understand the most basic concepts of nature, as basic as gravity. The book was carefully designed to meet the scientific standards and is illustrated with exquisite and original artwork. It also comes with a lexicon at the end, for those of you who wish to get a more detailed explanation on the key topics presented in the books. We are certain that you would enjoy it! About us: we are a couple of geologists and the parents of one amazing and curious child. We both have a B.Sc. and a M.Sc. in Earth science and geology. Gal works at a geological survey, while Yoav is pursuing a Ph.D. in hydrology. We believe that introducing scientific concepts at a young age is crucial for raising intelligent and inquisitive people, and have established "The Earth for Toddlers" series so that you can do so as well. We hope that you and your children will enjoy this book and learning about the rock cycle.
