✦ Synopsis

J. F. I. from many fields, geological, astronomical, chemical and physical are collated and interpreted to reflect the genesis and development of rocks.

To this reviewer, Part 1, dealing with the physics and chemistry of the earth as an astronomical body, was of particular interest.

It supplements the newly published books of 1952 which deal with the origin and chemical composition of the earth,

The other three sections are devoted to a comprehensive study of the three types of rocks and, as expected, by far the longest discussion is of the igneous rocks.

This book is most certainly not intended to be elementary and while of a highly technical nature it is destined to fill a need in the field. It demands of the reader a comprehensive knowledge and a complete grounding in the principles of the highly specialized science of petrology.
