The classic in the field since 1848, this extraordinary reference offers readers unsurpassed coverage of mineralogy and crystallography. The book is known for integrating complete coverage of concepts and principles with a more systematic and descriptive treatment of mineralogy. The revised edition now includes a CD-ROM to let readers see the minerals and crystals, while also viewing chemical composition, symmetry, and morphological crystallography.
Key concepts in mineralogy and petrology are explained alongside beautiful full-color illustrations, in this concisely written textbook.
Designed specifically for one-semester courses, this beautifully illustrated textbook explains the key concepts in mineralogy and petrology.
The thoroughly updated Laboratory Manual: Minerals and Rocks: Exercises in Crystal and Mineral Chemistry, Crystallography, X-ray Powder Diffraction, Mineral and Rock Identification, and Ore Mineralogy, 3e, is for use in the mineralogy laboratory and covers the subject matter in the same sequence as the Manual of Mineral Science, 23e.

Provides a general introduction to minerology through a study of basic concept, principles, and techniques of the discipline and also through focused analysis of specific minerals. Explains the relationship between chemical composition, internal structure, and physical properties of crystalline matter.

CD-ROM contains: many animations that deal with three-dimensional concepts, brief text pages for 104 of the most common minerals, diagrams, illustrations, etc
Classic work on mineralogy contains sections on crystallography; physical, chemical and descriptive mineralogy; occurrence and association of minerals; mineral uses and determinative mineralogy. There is a mineral index and a general index. Published 1959.
This lab book is designed to accompany any text for the mineralogy-petrology course. It contains 35 self-contained exercises and is thus valuable for either lab work or self study by the student. Most of the exercises contain extensive background material and worked examples allowing the student to work through the manual without the aid of a lab assistant. So that the lab instructor does not need to design the assignments most of the exercises also contain all the relevant details needed for the exercises. Spirally bound, students may remove assignments to be handed in to course instructors.
