Die Eisen- und Stahlindustrie spielte in der zweiten Halfte des 19. Jahrhunderts eine immer grossere Rolle, z. B. fur den Eisenbahn-, Brucken- und Schiffsbau. Der Autor informiert umfassend zur Kohle-, Eisen- und Stahlproduktion der Zeit, zu Arbeitsverhaltnissen, Verfahrenstechnik, Handel, Preisentwicklung und weiteren wirtschaftlichen Aspekten dieser Industrien. Samtliche bekannte Kohle- und Erzvorkommen der Erde werden beschrieben und die Verhaltnisse der Eisen-und Stahlproduktion und auch der Ein-und Ausfuhr soweit moglich in Zahlen und Fakten dargelegt. Nachdruck der Ausgabe zur Weltausstellung in Paris 1878

Indem ich den ersten Band des "Index der Krystallformen" nunmehr vollendet der Oeffentlichkeit ubergebe, moechte ich einen Punkt besonders hervorheben, in dem ich theilweise dem Widerspruch der Fachgenossen begegnet bin, was ich auch wohl erwartete. Er betrifft die haufig von dem Ueblichen abweichende Aufstellung der Krystalle. Bei der Beurtheilung wolle man auf die S. 37-39 dargelegten Principien Rucksicht nehmen und erst sie, dann ihre Consequenzen auf ihre Haltbarkeit prufen. Der Unter- schied besteht meist in der Vertauschung zwei er Axen, in der Regel der A- und C- resp. P- und Q -Axe. Es moege noch betont werden, dass durch diese Abanderung eine Herabziehung der Verwendbarkeit des Index nicht stattfindet, da sich die Umwandlung der Elemente und Symbole fur diesen Fall sehr einfach ausfuhrt. Es vertauschen nur a und c, p und r, a und y, A und Y ihre Stelle. Alle Identificationen und Transformationen bleiben und es erubrigt nur fur den, der die andere Aufstellung vorzieht, die Elemente zu verandern und in eine zuzufugende letzte Columne die von ihm gewahlten Symbole einzutragen. In Bezug auf die Literatur sei bemerkt, dass ich erst vom Jahr 1850 an die verschiedenen Specialarbeiten moeglichst vollzahlig in Bezug auf beobachtete Formen auszuziehen gesucht habe. Das Aeltere glaubte ich durch die zusammenfassenden Werke von Hauy, Mobs, Hartmann, Levy, Zippe, Hausmann, Miller, Des Cloizeaux, Dana, Sehrauf genugend gesichert. Durch diese Beschrankung ist eine wesentliche Entlastung fur die an sich gewaltige Arbeit eingetreten.

People have been fascinated by minerals since prehistory. The attractions of minerals lie in their colours, their beautiful crystals and the discoveries of their uses and the metals that can be obtained from them. Minerals receive attention from a wide variety of people: mining executives, collectors, prospectors and scientists unravelling their molecular structure and origins. But, for someone new to mineralogy, the subject can appear to be overwhelmingly complex. In Introducing Mineralogy John Mason considers the essence of mineralogy in a clear and logical manner. The book begins with the basic chemistry of minerals and the way in which the mineral kingdom is classified. It then considers mineral occurrences, both typical, such as the minerals that largely make up common rocks like granite, and atypical, such as concentrations of rare metals in ore-deposits. The ways in which minerals are studied using microscopes and the importance of careful observation and interpretation are discussed and the topics of mineral collecting and related issues are addressed. The final chapters explore the uses of minerals, both industrial and scientific, and take a look at environmental issues associated with mineral extraction and usage Lavishly illustrated in colour and complete with a glossary, the book is aimed at students embarking on courses in the Earth Sciences and at the amateur collector who wants to find out more about the colourful rocks they may find when out walking.

Minerals existed long before any forms of life, playing a key role in the origin and evolution of life; an interaction with biological systems that we are only now beginning to understand. Exploring the traditional strand of mineralogy, which emphasises the important mineral families, the well-established analytical methods (optical microscopy and X-ray diffraction) and the dramatic developments made in techniques over recent decades, David Vaughan also introduces the modern strand of mineralogy, which explores the role minerals play in the plate tectonic cycle and how they interact with the living world. Demonstrating how minerals can be critical for human health and illness by providing essential nutrients and releasing poisons, Vaughan explores the multitude of ways in which minerals have aided our understanding of the world. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.
