Publisher's Synopsis
""Geology, Mineralogy and Crystallography"" is a comprehensive book that provides a theoretical, practical, and descriptive view of inorganic nature. Written by David Thomas Ansted in 1855, the book covers a wide range of topics related to geology, mineralogy, and crystallography. The book is divided into three parts, each one focusing on a different aspect of inorganic nature. The first part of the book deals with geology, covering topics such as the structure of the earth, the formation of rocks, and the different types of rocks. The second part of the book focuses on mineralogy, describing the physical and chemical properties of minerals, as well as their classification and occurrence in nature. The third part of the book is dedicated to crystallography, explaining the principles of crystal formation, crystal structures, and crystallographic systems. Throughout the book, Ansted provides detailed descriptions, illustrations, and diagrams to help readers understand the concepts and theories presented. The book is aimed at students, researchers, and professionals in the fields of geology, mineralogy, and crystallography, but it is also accessible to anyone interested in learning about the natural world. Overall, ""Geology, Mineralogy and Crystallography"" is an essential reference book for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of inorganic nature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
