> To: GEO-TECTONICS en JISCMAIL.AC.UK
> 
> A new version of the text Earth Structure (by Ben van der Pluijm and Stephen Marshak; WW Norton Publishers) is now available.  Instead of edition-level revision, a new approach is used that integrates fundamentals, observations and application, titled "Processes in Structural Geology and Tectonics" (ISBN 978-1-5323-0282-4). 
> 
> Breaking the traditional print-price model, the text is on-line only, using a progressive, nation income-based fee of $6-10.  The engaging writing style has been retained and the inherent modularity of material allows alternative organizations.  Figures are colorized and photos are presentation quality; the layout is optimized for laptops and handhelds.
> 
> Beyond aggressive pricing, the text leverages the potential of the web, including user-only and community-based annotation of material through (no-cost) integration of Hypothes.is.  Posted lecture PowerPoints similarly allow annotation through a site-based PDF viewer.
> 
> The text is hosted at http://psgt.earth.lsa.umich.edu/, offering open access to informational material and lecture presentations, and personal password-restricted access to chapter text.  Instructors can email procsgt en gmail.com from a university email account with relevant info on class and a weblink to course catalog for free examination access.
