The Interpretation of Igneous Rocks

Our aim in writing this book is to try to show how igneous rocks can be persuaded to reveal some ofthe secrets of their origins. The book assumes a modest knowledge of basic petro­ graphy, mineralogy, classification, and regional igneous geology.
This study of igneous petrology shows how data derived from petrographic, geochemical and field studies can be used in the formulation and testing of petrogenetic hypotheses. It also deals with methodology as an important aspect of igneous petrology. Exercises are added to most chapters, and answers are given separately: the treatment is carefully graded in terms of difficulty and degrees of specialization.
