Synopsis
Explore the science behind volcanoes—from dramatic eruptions to quiet lava flows—and what drives them on a moving Earth.
This Yale University Press volume presents the Silliman Memorial Lecture series on the problem of volcanism. Written for geology students and curious readers alike, it distills complex ideas into accessible explanations without heavy jargon. The book traces how volcanic activity connects to the Earth's interior, its temperature, and the forces that shape continents, oceans, and the surface we see.
- Learn how different eruption styles arise from lava composition and mantle processes
- Understand the role of gases, magma, and pressure in volcanic activity
- See how the Earth’s outer shell and interior interact through fractures, faults, and isostasy
- Get a clear view of the bigger questions about Earth’s origin, structure, and long-term evolution
