Summary: The interpretation of igneous rocks
Comment: This title it's an outstanding book showing how data from petrogenetic, geochemical and fiel studies can be used to formulate and test petrogenetic hypotheses. This book covers such subjects related to igneous petrology as the concept of fractionation, chemical variation diagrams, phase diagrams, the experimental petrology of natural rocks, trace-element and isotope geochemestry, and petrography, all in relation with its methodology. The appendices cover rock nommenclature, major element composition and CIPW norms of important igneous rock types, norm calculations, and some representative mineral analyses. This title is full with diagrams and photographic illustrations that are an accompany to the text and are well integrated with it. This book brought a good help in the study of igneous petrology, and should be of serious interest to all students, tachers and researchers needing to understand this subject beyond an introductory level.
