Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - 'The Evolution of the Igneous Rocks' is a foundational work in the field of petrology, offering a rigorous scientific examination of how various rock types originate from cooling magma. Written by Norman Levi Bowen, this seminal text revolutionized geological science by applying principles of physical chemistry and experimental data to the study of igneous formations. The work explores the fundamental processes of fractional crystallization and magmatic differentiation, providing a systematic framework for understanding the diversity of the Earth's crust.Through a series of detailed analyses, the book introduces the concepts that would later become known as Bowen's Reaction Series, explaining the specific sequences in which minerals crystallize from a silicate melt. Bowen's approach bridges the gap between field observation and laboratory experimentation, making it an essential resource for geologists, mineralogists, and students of earth sciences. This text remains a cornerstone of modern petrology, valued for its clarity of thought and its lasting impact on our understanding of the thermal and chemical history of our planet. It is an indispensable classic for anyone interested in the physical processes that shape the subterranean and volcanic landscapes of the Earth.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it. This work was reproduced from the original artifact, and remains as true to the original work as possible.
