By (author): Andrew Goudie

This book provides an introduction to rocky landscapes through carefully selected images from Google Earth, discussing what they show and provides references to the sites portrayed so that readers can go deeper if they wish. Google Earth (GE) is remarkably useful for examining and appreciating phenomena on the face of the Earth. This book demonstrates its value for understanding the landscapes associated with particular rock types and structures, and for appreciating their aesthetics. The text describes the feature(s) concerned, their location and their origin, often accompanied by ground images taken by the author.
