Synopsis
Geysers. What makes them work? Many who have seen a geyser in action know only that it spouts hot water into the air. Many others have never seen one. Chapter 1, Geysers of the World, delineates their distinguishing features, locates the geyser regions of the world, and places investigations by world travelers and scientists in historic perspective. One of the quickest ways to become acquainted with a geyser is to observe it. The descriptions of several well known geysers, some based on past observations by others, but frequently by me, do not neces sarily portray current behavior. They do, however, represent general features. Geysers exist as a result of a delicate and unique interplay among the heat, the water, and the rocks of the earth. In essence, heat and water must be available, transported, distributed, stored, and finally released. Chapter 2, The Geologic, Thermal, and Hydrologic State of the Earth, especially that close to its surface, sets the stage for Chapter 3, Fundamentals of Geyser Operation. The geyser is treated here as a simple system consisting of three major interacting elements: a source of water, a source of heat, and a reservoir for storing water. The discus sion centers around the actions occurring within idealized columnar and pool geysers, and more complex systems. Some of the more workable geyser theories are evaluated.", Geysers.

- n***g (598)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseReliable SELLERS like this one are the reason why I’ve started using and following these professionals on eBay and have left the terrible Amazon shipped products. Absolutely 100% perfect transaction. Item arrived earlier than expected, well packaged and as described. Amazon would learn a thing or two when it comes to businesses like this where the price is right and the item actually arrives as described and in perfect collector's quality. A+!!!
- j***r (34)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseIn terms of the condition, the book (especially the cover) had more wear than it seemed that posting mentioned. The cover had visible bent marks in the corner, which was disappointing. I wasn't expecting a mint book as the posting mentioned it wasn't new, but I don't think it was a "VERY GOOD" copy as listed - more in ther "GOOD" category. Delivery was very fast and well packaged, which I appreciated.
