The Solid Earth is a general introduction to the study of modern physics of the solid Earth, including how the Earth’s surface operates and the workings of the Earth’s deep interior. The book begins with a brief historical introduction to the developments of geophysics, then discusses the important theory of plate tectonics, followed by a section on geomagnetism and paleomagnetism. The author then covers in turn seismology, gravity, radioactivity, the age of the Earth, heat flow in the Earth, and concludes with chapters on the physics of the oceanic and continental lithospher
