Reviews

'Mike Carr, Geologist Emeritus at the US Geological Survey, has participated in virtually all those missions and has probably seen more Mars imagery than anyone; no one is more qualified to write this book. ... Astronomy has now abdicated much of the solar system to geology, and no geoscientist with an interest in the revolution should be without a copy.' Journal of Geology ...this book will prove very useful both to incoming students in the field and researchers wishing to become more familiar with recent advances in subjects outside their usual area. It is excellently prepared and presented and likely to become a common feature on the bookshelves of planetary scientists everywhere. --The Meteoritical Society ...describes morphology and process on the red planet, and it does that extremely well...no one is more qualified to write this book...Astronomy has now abdicated much of the solar system to geology, and no geoscientist with an interest in the revolution should be without a copy. --Journal of Geology
