Reviews / Votes
The quality of colour illustrations is of the highest standard. The images are sharp, and the colour reproduction is excellent-Min Mag
...it behooves even the veteran petrologist to have access to this new publication by Adams and MacKenzie.
-American Mineralogist
An immensely useful book. It is the next best thing to being lead through a collection of slides by an experienced tutor... It will appeal to geologists at every level...Unlike many books written to be kept by the microscope, it opens flat.
