Review: Book Principles of Igneous and Metamorphic Petrology - My daughter studies Honnors in Geology and uses this book for studying and also just to read for extra info. What a great gift a book makes! Thank you for excellent, fast shipping.
Review: el producto llegó a grandes rasgos en la condición señalada como aceptable (a mi parecer), ya que presentaba algunas de las caracteristicas señaladas como cubierta o contracubierta algo doblada, algunas torceduras menores de las paginas y pequeñas manchas que no alteraban la lectura. lo unico que me parecio algo negativo fue el hecho de que un pequeño pedazo de pagina fue arrancado lo que impedia leer un pequeño extracto de informacion. esto aparece ilustrado en una de las fotos. de todas maneras, terminé arreglando yo mismo este pequeño incoveniente pegando la info faltante. todo lo demas en el libro esta en un estado aceptable para la lectura. le daria 4 estrellas y media por esta pequeña omision, pero como no se puede y aun asi el libro esta muy bueno le doy las 5

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent subject coverage
*by D***Z on March 17, 2012*

I have several advanced books on this subject, and I have to congratulate the author for thoroughly covering the subject, avoiding biases or digressions, and providing clear explanations. In general the few recent books on this subject ARE well written, but tend to have minor flaws of this nature, spending too much time on the intricacies of texture while shorting the chemistry (or vice versa), skipping a category of rock the author is not familiar with, and so on. It is clear the author worked hard to avoid this, as is evident by embedded editorial comments (for example a reference to a plethora of rock names to be skipped in order to summarize important points). The best books on igneous, metamorphic, or sedimentary petrology (or any text book for that matter) provide cogent explanations, BUT also include summary tables or diagrams that the author spent a lot of time producing, summaries that span rock types, environments, or mineralogies. This book includes several such, and I find myself pulling it off the shelf when I need to look up something. This contrasts, for example, with the volumes of the Rock Forming Minerals which are meticulously detailed, thorough, and focused, but utterly 'narrow-beam' and lacking in summary, spanning, or associational content.
