| Zusammenfassung: | From individual grains to desert dunes, from the bottom of the sea to the landscapes of Mars, and from billions of years in the past to the future, this is the extraordinary story of one of nature's humblest, most powerful, and most ubiquitous materials. Told by a geologist with a novelist's sense of language and narrative, Sand examines the science-sand forensics, the physics of granular materials, sedimentology, paleontology and archaeology, planetary exploration-and at the same time explores the rich human context of sand. Interwoven with tales of artists, mathematicians, explorers. |

billions of years in the past to the future, this is the extraordinary story of one of nature's humblest, most powerful, and most ubiquitous materials. Told by a geologist with a novelist's sense of language and narrative, Sand examines the science-sand forensics, the physics of granular materials, sedimentology, paleontology and archaeology, planetary exploration-and at the same time explores the rich human context of sand. Interwoven with tales of artists, mathematicians, explorers.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="546" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">In English.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Sand</subfield><subfield code="v">Miscellanea.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Sandstone</subfield><subfield code="v">Miscellanea.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="2"><subfield code="a">Silicon Dioxide</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Sable</subfield><subfield code="v">Miscellanées.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Grès</subfield><subfield code="v">Miscellanées.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Silice.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">silica (mineral)</subfield><subfield code="2">aat</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">NATURE</subfield><subfield code="x">General.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">NATURE</subfield><subfield code="x">Natural Resources.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">NATURE</subfield><subfield code="x">Rocks & Minerals.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Sand</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Sandstone</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Sand</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="0">http://d-nb.info/gnd/4051537-0</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Sandstein</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="0">http://d-nb.info/gnd/4127360-6</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Sand.</subfield><subfield code="2">sao</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Jorderosion</subfield><subfield code="x">historia.</subfield><subfield code="2">sao</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Marklära</subfield><subfield code="x">historia.</subfield><subfield code="2">sao</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Öknar.</subfield><subfield code="2">sao</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">miscellanies.</subfield><subfield code="2">aat</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Trivia and miscellanea</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Trivia and miscellanea.</subfield><subfield code="2">lcgft</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026201</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Miscellanées.</subfield><subfield code="2">rvmgf</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="z">9780199563180</subfield><subfield code="z">0199563187</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="856" ind1="4" ind2="0"><subfield code="l">FWS01</subfield><subfield code="p">ZDB-4-EBA</subfield><subfield code="q">FWS_PDA_EBA</subfield><subfield code="u">https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=672937</subfield><subfield code="3">Volltext</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Internet Archive</subfield><subfield code="b">INAR</subfield><subfield code="n">sandneverendings0000well</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">EBL -
