Study of microstructures is an indispensable component of
understanding structural geology of any terrain. A number of
‘new’ microscopic structures such as ‘flanking
microstructures’, trapezoid-shaped mineral grains, reversal of
ductile shear sense, micro-duplexes, V-pull aparts, and new
minerals nucleating inside host minerals have recently been
described in individual manuscripts. However, for the sake of
brevity, microstructural papers cannot show all possible variation
in their morphology. The proposed book aims to present these
structures with attractive colour photographs. Each photomicrograph
will have a comprehensive caption. The book also presents grain
boundary migration, boudins, symptoms of metamorphic retrogression,
and how well known shear sense indicators (S-C fabrics, mineral
fish etc.) vary in morphology in serial-sections. The target
audience is for graduate and postgraduate geosciences students and
researchers of structural geology.
