Sinopsis
Excerpt from Minerals in Rock Sections: The Practical Methods of Identifying Minerals in Rock Sections With the Microscope; Especially Arranged for Students in Technical and Scientific Schools
In preparing the revised edition, Chapters I. And IV. Have been rewritten and enlarged and the part relating to the determination of the plagioclases has been greatly amplified. Many additions have also been made to Chapter III. And the Becke method, for the determination of the relative indices of refraction of minerals, has been given in detail.

Excerpt from Minerals in Rock Sections: The Practical Methods of Identifying Minerals in Rock Sections With the Microscope; Especially Arranged for Students in Technical and Scientific Schools
The identification of minerals in rock sections with the microscope, including as it does a knowledge of optical mineralogy, is often difficult for beginners. This may be due to the fact that most of the publications on this subject are quite elaborate in their nature and in either French or German. While detailed descriptions are very necessary, and, in fact, indispensable for advanced investigation, they are apt to prove cumbersome and confusing at first. For these reasons this text-book has been prepared by the writer, with a view of putting before the student only those facts which are absolutely necessary for the proper recognition and identification of the common minerals in rock sections. The footnotes refer the student to standard publications, in which are given details of the methods and investigations outlined in the text. An elementary knowledge of crystallography and mineralogy is almost indispensable and is here assumed.
The microscopic and optical characters of the minerals are recorded in the usual order in which they would be observed with a petrographical microscope. Nearly all the rock-forming minerals become transparent in thin sections; but when opaque, attention is called to the fact and the characters are recorded as seen with incident light. White light is assumed to be used, unless otherwise stated. The interference colors recorded in all cases are those given by very thin sections of 0.03 mm. in thickness.
The order followed for the minerals is essentially that of Rosenbusch (based on the symmetry of the crystalline form), with a few exceptions made for convenience, such as placing pyrrhotite after pyrite and zoisite after epidote.
