Question
SALLAM
SIR I RECENTLY GOT ADDMISION IN GEOLOGY , AND ATTENDED SOME CLASSES,
BUT I HAVE TO MAKE MY OWN NOTES, SIR PLEASE TELL ME SOME USEFUL BOOKS NAMES OF FIRST SEMESTER OF GEOLOGY

Answer
Hello Mohsin,

I'll say use internet as much as you can.

Go to the following websites. You will learn much more about geology. Your common practice in each website should be to search for the KEY WORDS (e.g. terminology, name of sub branch, title etc).

[1] A good way of file (pdfs) sharing
www.scribd.com
http://www.slideshare.net/

[2] Google Books

Some people do upload pdfs of copyrighted material on e.g. Rapidshare etc. Becareful if you download such material.

Search the university library. There must be 100s of references.

Best Regards,

Expertise

I can answer to the questions related to the following disciplines mainly: geology, geophysics, general geomorphology, stratigraphy, seismic stratigraphy and sequence stratigraphy. I would like to answer Geophysical question too with keen interest specifically exploration related. I want to hear from users for their queries on exploration geophysics/geology. Especially, in the discipline of Reservoir Characterization from multi-discipline data. The questions related to basics and interpretational applications would be most welcome. I can not answer the questions related to astronomly, ecology/environmetal sciences, mineralogy and petrology/petrophysics. Such categories are not my discipline of experience.
