Abstract

PROF. BOSWELL is well known as a leading authority on sedimentary petrology, a subject which has developed vigorously during the last two decades, largely as a result of his own researches. In this book, he summarises the literature and presents his own mature views on various aspects of sediments and their minerals, thereby making readily available to everyone interested in this branch of geology an authoritative and stimulating account of the present status of the subject and its significance.
