About this book

There are several books emphasizing the mineralogical and petrological aspects of granites, but this book is the only one emphasizing the experimental aspects.

Reviews

"...a highly recommended summary of the up-to-date knowledge in the still controversially discussed field of experimentally based granite petrology. Simply said, the book is a MUST to everybody working with granites." J. of Petrology
