This concise, clear and handy-sized volume, aimed at the undergraduate level, provides an introduction to the observation, description and identifi cation in thin section, using the polarizing microscope, of samples of the commonlyoccurring rocks and minerals. Illustrated with a wealth of full colour thin section photomicrographs, and with the original images enhanced by new examples and a revised text, the book explains how to observe mineral and rock samples under the microscope. The book highlights the important diagnostic features of minerals and deals with all rock types - igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic - each with equal emphasis and authority, giving students the knowledge and confi dence to begin to identify specimens for themselves. While intended for students in geology, geography, civil engineering and materials science, the book stands on its own as a beautiful collection of photomicrographs and a permanent source of reference and fascination for all those interested in the nature and science of the world of rocks and minerals.
Provides a very clear guide to sedimentary rock types as seen under the microscope supported by practical aspects of slide preparation.

Diese Schrift versucht, neue methodische Moglichkeiten fiir die Psychopathologie des Gedachtnisses zu zeigen. Die heutigen informationstheoretischen Methoden sollten aber weniger in den Laboratorien als bei standiger klinischer Anwendung realisiert und diagnostisch bewahrt sein. Wenn wir mit diesen Anspriichen dem gegenwartigen Stand der Arbeiten vorgreifen, so verweisen wir gleichzeitig auf eine Schwache der vorliegenden Schrift, die noch ein MiBverhaltnis zwischen methodischen Aspekten und begrenzten klinischen Resultaten erkennen laBt. Diese Resultate sollten sich auch an einer aktuellen Gesamtdarstellung der Psycho- pathologie des Gedachtnisses orientieren und messen konnen. Da eine solche Darstel- lung nicht vorliegt, muBten die Grundlagen der mnestischen Psychopathologie eror- tert werden. Dabei wurde auch auf die schon weiter entwickelte psychologische Lite- ratur zuriickgegriffen, und es wurden einige morphologische und neurophysiologische Korrelate des Gedachtnisses zitiert. Unter dem fiihrenden informationspsychologischen Aspekt entstand so ein zweifellos sehr eigenwilliger Aufbau dieser Schrift, die jetzt nur einen Anfang zeigen will und daher keine weiteren Wege in dieser oder jener Richtung endgiiltig festlegen mochte.
