520			_a Principles Of Igneous And Metamorphic Petrology is considered an essential companion for a student of geology. Featuring an approach in which techniques are first presented and then applied to assess a field area, readers of this book will be well-equipped to expand the techniques according to the field examples. The theory has been presented in an accessible manner, and concentrates on the processes and principles involved in the generation of igneous and metamorphic matter. Such a treatment will help students develop a deeper understanding of the physical processes involved and provide them with skills that will prove valuable beyond the classroom. Principles Of Igneous And Metamorphic Petrology features a comprehensive section on petrogenesis, particularly igneous petrogenesis, covering important associations such as mid-ocean ridge processes, mid-ocean islands, island and continental arcs, granitoid rocks, and continental alkaline associations. Requiring only a working knowledge of algebra and calculus, the book does not place undue emphasis on knowledge of higher mathematics, chemistry, or physics. Chemical and physical principles are discussed at a level that is accessible and comprehensible.
