I had Chernicoff as a geology professor at the University of Washington, and we used his book. Not only were his classes fascinating, but his book was fabulous. The way he put it together and explained everything was fantastic; he excells at making those of us foreign to the world of geology interested in the subject (especially undergrads who are taking a geology class because it's required!). Furthermore, he does so in a way that is easily understandable and not at all confusing. He gives countless examples of what he is describing throughout, making the material even more easy to digest. It is easy to tell that he has a passion for what he does; it shows through in his writing. This is a perfect starting place for those interested in geological matters.
