This section is often greatly condensed in most other texts, but it is the most interesting and dynamic aspect of petrology. • 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. • A comprehensive section on petrogenesis, particularly igneous petrogenesis, covers important igneous petrogenetic associations • 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. • Worked examples, problems, and computer-related problems, found at the end of many chapters, carefully integrate a number of problems and computer programs • Spreadsheets are used extensively in worked examples and problems. Spreadsheets, data files, and other programs • Approximately 350 figures and tables are provided.
