The shapes and arrangements of crystals at a microscopic level constitute a rock's 'microstructure'. This book looks at the processes responsible for a wide variety of microstructures and discusses interpretation, potential pitfalls and the latest techniques. Essential reading for undergraduate and graduate students of petrology and structural geology; also for students of materials science.
