Fission track dating is based on the microscopic observation and
counting of etchable tracks left by the spontaneous fission of
uranium in minerals. Since its development in 1963 the method
attracted a steadily growing interest from geologists and
geochronologists throughout the world. Apart from its relative
experimental ease the success must be mainly ascribed to the
specific ability of the method of unravelling the thermal and
tectonic history of rocks, a potential which only became fully
exploited during the last decade with the systematic introduction
of track size analysis. This work deals with fission track dating
covering all of its aspects from the origin of the fission tracks,
the basis of track etching and fading, the various dating
techniques as well as practical procedures and the geologic
interpretation to recent applications in geology and archaeology.
