📘 An introduction to the rock-forming minerals

by W.A. Deer, R.A. Howie, J. Zussman

In this edition, most of the commonly occurring minerals of igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks are discussed in terms of structure, chemistry, optical and other physical properties, distinguishing features and paragenesis. Important correlations between these aspects of mineralogy are emphasized wherever possible. The content of each section has been updated where needed in light of published research over the 21 years between editions. Tables of over 200 chemical analyses and formulae are included and a number of older entries have been replaced by more recent examples. --From back cover of book
