Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores systems of classification within Mineralogy. The author questions the chemical and chemico-crystallographic classification systems that are almost universally used today. The author suggests that the systems are too focused on a single character of minerals and that doing so ignores the complex nature of minerals. Instead, the author argues for a truly natural system that classifies minerals based on more holistic and qualitative characteristics. The proposed system does not replace chemical classifications but offers a unique perspective that values the unique qualities of minerals beyond their chemical composition. The author hopes that the system inspires future researchers to develop a truly holistic classification system for the field of Mineralogy. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
