Structural Classification of Minerals: Volume I: Minerals with A, Am Bn and ApBqCr General Chemical Formulas


Add your own review!

Overview

This book presents a complete development of the new structural classification of minerals, which is based on the internal crystal structure, and therefore is its natural classification. Because of the large domain of the mineral kingdom, this book is divided in three volumes, where the minerals are ordered from the structurally simple to the more complex. This work will be of particular interest to teachers and research workers in Mineralogy, and also in Inorganic Crystal Structures in universities.

Reviews

'The great strength of this book lies in the information in chapter 2... The book is printed on good quality paper with clear type. Compared to other mineralogical books, the price is reasonable, Earth Science libraries will find a copy useful as a reference text and the price may be low enough to justify a personal copy.' Peter Bayliss, Canadian Mineralogist, 2002 'There is no doubt that the best approach to mineral classification is one based on the structure at the atomic level' 'This book is essentially a catalogue of simple minerals organized on the rational basis of structure. In this it is successful and likely to be of value to anyone interested in understanding the similarities and differences in the chemical and physical properties of minerals.' David Brown in Acta Cryst 58:4 (2002)
