Reviews

From the reviews: <p> This book proffers a very thorough general overview as to what is known at present about the products of deep-sea hydrothermalism forming metalliferous deposits and the basic theories a ] . All those interested and involved in teaching and learning (at undergraduate and graduate levels: as text the book is highly recommended) and engaged in research and exploration (Thwaites, 2005) of oceanographic and related environments must get familiar with this excellent book. a ] every library of universities and research institutions must have a copy. (Karl Wolf, The Australian Geologist Newsletter, Issue 138, 2006) <p> Metalliferous Sediments of the World Ocean summarizes the state of the art in the recent research on hydrothermal sedimentation in the deep ocean. The author a ] explains in a manner that is concise and easy to understand the basics and most recent findings in the field. a ] I have really enjoyed reading Gurvicha (TM)s book. a ] I will recommend it to my colleagues. I am convinced that a wide range of geoscientists will benefit from using it as it is a valuable source of information. (Vesselin Dekov, Journal of Sedimentary Research, May, 2006)
