500 ## - GENERAL NOTE
General note	• A balanced presentation limits the theory to the extent that students can practice it on real occurrences—without such excessive detail that the course becomes more like chemistry than geology.<br/><br/><br/>• A survey of actual occurrences of igneous and metamorphic rocks, and processes that produce them, is provided. This section is often greatly condensed in most other texts, but it is the most interesting and dynamic aspect of petrology.<br/><br/><br/>• A techniques/occurrences approach for both igneous and metamorphic rocks that first presents the techniques, then applies them to assess a field area, and then expands the techniques as necessary if the field examples call for it.<br/><br/><br/>• A comprehensive section on petrogenesis, particularly igneous petrogenesis, covers important igneous petrogenetic associations<br/><br/><br/>• An accessible approach to mathematics, chemistry, and physics requires only a working knowledge of algebra; calculus is occasionally discussed, but is not required. Chemical and physical principles are presented early on, and at a level that is comprehensible and accessible.<br/><br/><br/>• Worked examples, problems, and computer-related problems, found at the end of many chapters, carefully integrate a number of problems and computer programs<br/><br/><br/>• Spreadsheets are used extensively in worked examples and problems. Spreadsheets, data files, and other programs<br/><br/><br/>• Approximately 350 figures and tables are provided.<br/><br/>Part I Igneous Petrology <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 1 Some Fundamental Concepts <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 2 Classification and Nomenclature of Igneous Rocks <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 3 Textures of Igneous Rocks <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 4 Igneous Structures and Field Relationships<br/><br/><br/>Chapter 5 An Introduction to Thermodynamics <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 6 The Phase Rule and One- and Two-Component Systems <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 7 Systems with More than Two Components <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 8 Chemical Petrology I: Major and Minor Elements <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 9 Chemical Petrology II: Trace Elements and Isotopes <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 10 Generation of Basaltic Magmas <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 11 Magma Diversity <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 12 Layered Mafic Intrusions <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 13 Mid-Ocean Ridge Volcanism <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 14 Oceanic Intraplate Volcanism <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 15 Continental Flood Basalts <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 16 Subduction-Related Igneous Activity Part I: Island Arcs <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 17 Subduction-Related Igneous Activity Part II: Continental Arcs <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 18 Granitoid Rocks <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 19 Continental Alkaline Magmatism <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 20 Anorthosites <br/><br/><br/><br/>Part II Metamorphic Petrology <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 21 An Introduction to Metamorphism <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 22 A Classification of Metamorphic Rocks <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 23 Structures and Textures of Metamorphic Rocks <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 24 Stable Mineral Assemblages in Metamorphic Rocks <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 25 Metamorphic Facies and Metamorphosed Mafic Rocks <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 26 Metamorphic Reactions <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 27 Thermodynamics of Metamorphic Reactions <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 28 Metamorphism of Pelitic Sediments<br/><br/><br/>Chapter 29 Metamorphism of Calcareous and Ultramafic Rocks <br/><br/><br/>Chapter 30 Metamorphic Fluids, Mass Transport and Metasomatism <br/><br/><br/><br/>Appendix A: Units and Constants<br/><br/><br/>Appendix B: Abbreviations and Acronyms<br/><br/><br/>Appendix C: The CIPW Norm
