| 500 ## - GENERAL NOTE | |
| General note | Building upon the award-winning second edition, this comprehensive textbook provides a fundamental understanding of the formative processes of igneous and metamorphic rocks. Encouraging a deeper comprehension of the subject by explaining the petrologic principles, and assuming knowledge of only introductory college-level courses in physics, chemistry, and calculus, it lucidly outlines mathematical derivations fully and at an elementary level, making this the ideal resource for intermediate and advanced courses in igneous and metamorphic petrology. With over 500 illustrations, many in color, this revised edition contains valuable new material and strengthened pedagogy, including boxed mathematical derivations allowing for a more accessible explanation of concepts, and more qualitative end-of-chapter questions to encourage discussion. With a new introductory chapter outlining the “bigger picture,” this fully updated resource will guide students to an even greater mastery of petrology.<br/><br/>Builds an in-depth understanding of petrologic principles through a quantitative approach, supported by instructive and updated end-of-chapter questions<br/>Illustrated with over 500 figures, with many in colour. All phase diagrams are accompanied by photomicrographs, linking descriptive aspects of petrology with the fundamental principles governing the origin of rocks<br/>Provides an introduction to complex software programs by promoting an understanding of the thermodynamic principles governing phase equilibrium <br/><br/>Contents:<br/><br/>Preface<br/>Acknowledgments<br/>List of units<br/>List of abbreviations<br/>1.
