A clear understanding of the processes responsible for observed
rock microstructures is essential for making reliable petrogenetic
interpretations, including inferences made from chemical and
isotopic analyses of minerals. This volume presents a comprehensive
survey of rock microstructures, emphasising basic concepts and the
latest methods, while highlighting potential pitfalls in the
interpretation of the origin of rock microstructure. Richly
illustrated with over 250 colour photographs, including more than
10 percent new photomicrographs and several mesoscopic images, it
demonstrates the basic processes responsible for the wide variety
of microstructures in igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks.
This second edition includes extensive updates to the coverage of
igneous rocks as well as recent ideas on physical processes in
migmatites and partial melting of sedimentary rocks. This practical
guide will continue to be an invaluable resource to advanced
students and early-career researchers of mineralogy, petrology and
structural geology, as well as professional geologists and material
scientists.
