Petrogenesis of Metamorphic Rocks

*Kurt Bucher l Rodney Grapes

This new edition of “Petrogenesis of Metamorphic Rocks” has several completely revised chapters and all chapters have updated references and redrawn figures. All chapters of Part II of the book have been rewritten. Also, the chapters “Introduction” and “Grade” have undergone several major changes. The references made to important web sites relating to metamorphic petrology tutorials, software, mail base, etc have been updated and extended. However, it should be noted that some of the links to these sites may fail to work in the future. A large number of new figures showing assemblage stability diagrams have been computed using the Theriak/ Domino software by Ch. de Capitani of the University of Basel. 

We encourage you to regularly read (or at least glance through) current issues of scientific journals in your library either online or paper copies. In the field of metamorphic petrology, the Journal of Metamorphic Geology is essential reading and some of the other particularly relevant journals include, Journal of Petrology, Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology, Geofluids, American Mineralogist, European Journal of Mineralogy, Lithos, Chemical Geology and Earth and Planetary Science Letters.
