This text discusses the morphology of the most important types of geological structures. The structures are related to their manifestation on geological maps, and photographs are included to emphasize the similarities between structures at outcrop scale and on the scale of a map. Worked examples are given to assist with the solution of the exercises provided. Emphasis is placed throughout the text on developing the skill of three-dimensional visualization.
