Essentials of Igneous and Metamorphic Petrology

'The second edition of Essentials of Igneous and Metamorphic Petrology takes a successful format and develops it further to produce a key, up-to-date undergraduate petrology textbook. Structuring petrological processes around tectonic environments and processes makes for a straightforward and intuitive text, and allows for conceptual linkages between igneous and metamorphic rocks and processes. The call-outs and question sets are appropriate and thought-provoking, and add broader context and understanding that can be developed in associated class activities.' Graham D. M. Andrews, West Virginia University
