Publisher's Synopsis
The Methods Of Petrographic-Microscopic Research: Their Relative Accuracy And Range Of Application (1911) is a comprehensive book written by Frederic Eugene Wright. The book is a detailed study of the different methods used in petrographic-microscopic research and their accuracy and range of application. The book begins with an introduction to petrographic-microscopic research and its importance in the field of geology. It then goes on to discuss the various techniques used in this type of research, including the use of polarized light, thin sections, and staining techniques. The author also covers the various types of rocks that can be analyzed using petrographic-microscopic research, including igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks. He explains the characteristics of each type of rock and how they can be identified using microscopic analysis. Throughout the book, the author provides numerous examples of petrographic-microscopic research, including case studies of specific rocks and minerals. He also discusses the limitations of this type of research and the potential sources of error. Overall, The Methods Of Petrographic-Microscopic Research: Their Relative Accuracy And Range Of Application (1911) is an essential reference for anyone interested in petrographic-microscopic research or geology in general. It provides a detailed and comprehensive overview of the techniques and methods used in this type of research, as well as their accuracy and limitations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
