Abstract
THIS latest addition to the Cambridge Science Manuals is intended by the author as a guide to the study of rocks in thin slices under the microscope In scarcely another English text-book on the subject has the treatment of rocks from the purely petrographical point of view of microscopic examination been so strictly adhered to throughout as in the book before us. “Microscope” is almost the first word in the book, and sounds the key-note of the whole.
