Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

After Robert H. Dott Jr. fell in love with the mountains of the western United States at an early age, he studied geology at the Universities of Oklahoma and Michigan and earned a PhD at Columbia University in New York. He spent two years on active duty in the U.S. Air Force and then joined the faculty of the University of Wisconsin in 1958. Among his many publications is Evolution of the Earth, a pioneering undergraduate textbook now in its seventh edition.

John W. Attig is a transplanted New Englander who misses the ocean and mountains. He pursued his interest in glacial and Quaternary geology while a student at the University of Main at Orono (MS, 1974) and the University of Wisconsin (Ph.D. 1984). Since 1981 he has been affiliated with the Wisconsin Geological and Natural History Survey. He enjoys public education and is a Professor in the University of Wisconsin Extension Department of Environmental Sciences. He has conducted research in the Midwest and New England as well as in Antartica, Alaska, and Scandinavia. He and his wife, Cathy, live on a til plain of the Green Bay Lobe in Waunakee, Wisconsin.
