Lingkup Pembahasan:

Buku Edisi Kesebelas  merupakan edisi yang sudah direvisi menyeluruh. Setiap bagian dari buku itu diperiksa dengan teliti dengan tujuan ganda  menyesuaikan topik saat ini dan meningkatkan kejelasan
diskusi teks.  Hal-hal baru edisi ini meliputi:
• Banyak dari Bab 2, "Materi dan Mineral," ditulis ulang untuk membuat topik yang  kadang-kadang sulit (kimia-oriented) menjadi lebih mudah dimengerti oleh  siswa. Diskusi struktur atom dasar, ikatan, kristal dan kristalisasi, komposisi dan variasi struktural, serta  silikat mendapat perhatian terkuat.
• Bab 3,  "Batuan beku  dan Kegiatan mengganggu," sebelumnya berjudul "Batuan  beku." Judul bab baru mencerminkan reorganisasi yang telah terjadi. Pembahasan mengganggu Kegiatan yang sebelumnya dalam Bab 4 sekarang merupakan bagian penutup dari Bab 3. Mereka logis mengikuti bagian "Asal Magma" dan "Bagaimana Magma berkembang." Seluruh  diskusi "intrusif Kegiatan beku" telah direvisi dan diulang sebagai bagian "beku Textures: Apa yang Bisa Mereka Beritahu Kami? "
• Dalam Bab 4, "Gunung berapi dan bahaya Vulkanik," diskusi aliran piroklastik benar-benar direvisi dan ditulis ulang, seperti bagian atas kaldera.
• Bab 7, "Metamorfisme dan metamorf Rocks," termasuk bagian direvisi dan ditulis ulang pada "Apa Drives Metamorfisme?" dan "metamorfosa Lingkungan."
• Bab 8, "Wasting Mass: Kerja Gravity, "termasuk bagian baru pada Potensi Tanah longsor dan materi baru di tanah longsor dipicu gempa yang menghancurkan bagian dari China pada Mei 2008.
• Di antara bab-bab yang berfokus pada proses eksternal Bab 9, "Running Air,"  memperoleh perhatian yang besar. Diskusi kemajuan lebih jelas, cara yang lebih logis untuk siswa. Topik yang mendapat perhatian khusus termasuk sifat cekungan drainase, karakteristik debit sungai, membentuk streaming lembah, dan batuan dasar vs saluran aluvial.
• Bab 10, "Tanah," dimulai dengan pengenalan baru dan memiliki bagian baru  Sumber Daya Dasar.
• Bab 11, "Gletser dan Glaciation," termasuk bagian baru pada Gletser di Retreat, dan diskusi baru yang ditujukan untuk Greenland’s Glacial Budget.
• Bab 13, "Garis Pantai," memiliki materi baru pada arus rip dan sepenuhnya direvisi dan ditulis ulang pada "Hurricanes—The Ultimate Coastal Hazard" yang mencakup Diskusi all-new pada Profile of a Hurricane.
• Bab 14, "Gempa bumi dan Interior Bumi," dimulai dengan Bencana gempa bumi di Haiti. Sebuah bagian baru pada Gempa Bumi dan Kesalahan mengeksplorasi hubungan penting antara fenomena ini.
Bagian yang ditujukan untuk skala besar dan gempa bumi diprediksi secara substansial.
• Bab 15, "Lempeng Tektonik: A Scientific Revolution Unfolds. "Selain pengantar baru material, beberapa bagian yang substansial direvisi termasuk yang berhubungan dengan bukti fosil untuk benua
melayang dan kekuatan yang mendorong gerakan lempeng.
• Bab 17 tentang deformasi kerak  dan di bagian kedua  tentang "tumbukan Gunung Sabuk ".
• Bab 18, "Waktu Geologi," bagian diperbarui pada skala waktu geologi mencerminkan perubahan terbaru, sementara bagian baru menjelaskan beberapa terminologi terkait dengan skala waktu.
• Bab 19 mengemukakan tentang Evolusi Bumi melalui Geologi Waktu, dan Bab 20 Perubahan Iklim Global.
