Invaluable Identification Guide 2000-09-20 As a user of this book as a student of Geology I can highly recommend it. There is no douth in my mind that this remains the best book made for identification in optical mineralogy. In addition to containing descriptions of optical properties for over 450 minerals, it has a easy to use system of tabels which crossreference and compare the optical properties of the minerals. This system is very well taliored and makes identification, not a dream but a lot easier. The book also has a large section on the theory of optical mineralogy and polarizing microscope.
Information Rich Treasure 2000-06-20 I used an older edition of this book in my crystallography studies. It is fasinating to see the pictures. There is a complete section that was helpful on using the polarising microscope. It also has an identification guide which is useful although a modern database could also do this type of searching. A good book for a geology student.
