Geomorphology

Abstract

THE recent revival of interest in geomorphology is reflected in the appearance of a number of text-books in the past five years. The most recent, by the professor of geology at Cornell University, is to be welcomed particularly because it is intended for more advanced students. The author assumes that the reader has already completed an elementary course of geology, and that he is acquainted with the nature and operation of geological processes. By omitting much of this introductory matter, Prof, von Engeln has been able to devote much more than the customary space to the discussion of wider concepts.
