Principles of Igneous and Metamorphic Petrology

by John D. Winter

For a combined, one-semester, junior/senior-level course in Igneous and Metamorphic Petrology. Also useful for programs that teach Igneous Petrology and Metamorphic Petrology.

Typical texts on igneous and metamorphic petrology are geared to either advanced or novice petrology students. This unique text offers comprehensive, up-to-date coverage of both igneous and metamorphic petrology in a single volume–and provides the quantitative and technical background required to critically evaluate igneous and metamorphic phenomena in a way that students at all levels can understand. The goal throughout is for students to be able to apply the techniques–and enjoy the insights of the results–rather than tinker with theory and develop everything from first principles.

Sicuramente il testo specialistico di Petrologia magmatica e metamorfica migliore che abbia mai letto (e studiato). Completo ed esaustivo, consigliato a chi si trova ad affrontare un corso di Petrologia e/o petrografia sia Triennale che Magistrale.
