Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

New York: John Wiley & Sons, 1976. HARDCOVER edition. NOT a library discard. Appears unread. Fine condition in a Fine dust jacket. NO fading, chips, tears or creases. Sharp corners. Pages are fresh, crisp, clean and unmarked -- apparently never read. NO owner's name or bookplate. NOT a remainder. NOT a library discard. Illustrated with numerous maps and figures. Bound in the original brown boards, stamped in bright silver. From the dust jacket: "In this advanced book, intended for senior undergraduates, postgraduates and research workers in petrology and structural geology, Dr. Vernon examines the small scale features of metamorphism; chemical reactions and the development of microstructure or textures." From the author's Preface: "This book is for senior undergraduate or postgraduate students who want an insight into some modern approaches to metamorphic petrology. Its aims are to explain, in reasonably simple, informal terms, the processes underlying (i) metamorphic reactions and (ii) the production of micro structures in metamorphic rocks, these currently being the things that interest me most, geologically. The first aim requires discussion of equilibrium factors, reaction kinetics and reaction mechanisms, empha sising both the complexity of realistic reactions and the need to combine the chemical and microstructural approaches to them. The second aim requires discussion of deformation, recovery, recrystallisation and grain growth processes, with emphasis on experiments on silicate minerals. The book concludes with a general attempt to relate chemical and physical processes in metamorphism, although it will be clear from reading earlier chapters (especially Chapter 4) that the two aspects can rarely be separated completely in detailed metamorphic studies. Petrological and experimental investigations of metamorphic reactions and microstructural development are advancing so rapidly these days that students are faced with an ever-increasing volume of information and a relatively rapid obsolescence of data. So, in this book I do not try to be comprehensive, or to present much so-called 'factual' information. Instead, I deal more with basic principles, in the hope that these will guide the student in his or her encounters with the details of specific metamorphic problems". First Edition. Hardcover. Fine condition/Fine dust jacket. Illus. by NOT a library discard. 8vo. 247pp. Great Packaging, Fast Shipping.…

About Books [Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and out of print books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail order catalogue, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of more than 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialities listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you want to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please only between the hours of 8am and 10pm, west coast time. Our phone is a landline that cannot receive texts.…
