Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from d104-Book of Descriptive Mineralogy In the preparation of the present volume, owing to the large and constantly increasing stock of mineralogical literature, the chief difficulty has been the selection and compression of the material so as to give a fair general view of the subject within the space available. For this purpose and in order to carry out the general ideas of the series, only the more important species, whether from a natural history or an economic point of view, are described in much detail, the general relations of the individual species in each group being indicated in a preliminary statement at the commencement of each chapter. It was originally$ intended to illustrate the descriptions mainly by the figures in the 'Treatise on Systematic Mineralogy;' but during the progress of the work, the writer was fortunate enough to acquire the wood blocks used in the illustration of 'Brooke and Miller, ' which have been generally regarded as the best examples of their class ever executed, and he has used a selection of these in preference to perspective projections.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mineralogy: An Introduction to the Study of Minerals and Crystals This text is the result of long experience in teaching large classes of beginning students, and the subject is accordingly presented in a direct and simple manner. The essentials of the various phases of the science have been treated so that a single book may serve the needs of the average student. The conventional line drawings of crystals, which students commonly have difficulty in properly visualizing, have been superseded to a very large extent by excellent photographs of crystal models, natural crystals, and minerals, such as are actually handled in the laboratory. These are all original photographs of material contained in the various collections of the University of Michigan. Furthermore, an attempt has been made to vitalize the subject as much as possible, and accordingly there are chapters on the importance of mineralogy in modern civilization, on gems and precious stones, and on the production and uses of the important economic minerals. Numerous photographs and short sketches of distinguished mineralogists have also been introduced in the hope that they will add a human touch. The chapters on crystallography are based very largely upon the senior author's Essentials of Crystallography, while much of the material in the descriptions of the 150 minerals given in this text has been taken from his Descriptive Mineralogy. The determinative tables are an abridgment of the authors Mineral Tables. We are greatly indebted to Mr. George R.Swain, technical expert in photography in the University of Michigan, whose varied experience and unusual skill made the excellent photographs of models and minerals possible; also to Dr. George P. Kunz for valuable assistance in securing a considerable number of very desirable photographs. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A d104-Book of Mineralogy: With an Extended Treatise on Crystallography and Physical Mineralogy The preparation of a text-book of Mineralogy was undertaken in 1868, by Prof. J. D. Dana, immediately after the publication of the fifth edition of the System of Mineralogy. The state of his health, however, early compelled him to relinquish the work, and he was not able subsequently to resume it. Finally, after the lapse of seven years, the editorship of the volume was placed in the hands of the writer, who has endeavored to carry out the original plan. The work is intended to meet the requirements of class instruction. With this end in view the Descriptive part has been made subordinate to the more important subjects embraced under Physical Mineralogy.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mineralogy: An Introduction to the Scientific Study of Minerals The student Will not find in the following pages any systematic account of the modes of occurrence of minerals, their geological distribution, their origin, their alterations, or their artificial reproduction, although these constitute the most important, and, perhaps, the most interesting section of Mineralogy proper. There are no chapters upon these subjects because, in my Opinion, they deserve to form a separate volume, and cannot be treated adequately in a volume dealing with the characters and properties of minerals. The essential characters of a mineral, moreover, are quite independent of its source or previous history, and may well be made the first and separate object of study. In the description of mineral species the modern text-book often endeavours to give too much information, and ends by becoming a book of reference rather than a treatise which can be read by the student. This should no longer be necessary, now that Dana's System and Hintze's Handbuch are available; in the present volume an attempt is made to select for the student all that he requires for an elementary acquaint ance with the subject. The species described are those which he will find in all museums, and most of them he may collect for himself. The customary lists of localities are replaced by a description of a few typical occurrences for each important species by a careful study of the corresponding specimens the beginner should obtain the information which will enable him to pursue the subjects of geological and chemical mineralogy with some previous knowledge of minerals. The few angles given are generally only such as are sufficient for the calculation of the axial ratios or for simple exercises in the calculation of indices. In the discussion of optical characters, the introduction of two ellipsoids may appear unnecessary and even confusing; the Fresnel Ellipsoid has been introduced in order to avoid incorrect statements about optic axes, but it will be found that the indicatrix is the only ellipsoid subsequently employed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introduction to the Study of Minerals: A Combined Text-Book and Pocket Manual This work is intended primarily as a text-book for a one-year course in mineralogy. While full enough for class work it is condensed enough for field work. There is decided advantage in using the same book in the field as in the class room and laboratory. The author's aim has been to produce a Well-balanced book covering the whole field of mineralogy as far as is practicable; and one in which the practical methods of identifying. Minerals, the economic features, and the scientific aspects of mineralogy as a means of correlating hundreds of isolated facts, are all given their proper emphasis. The only way to bring out the important and essential points is to omit the great mass of details which are properly included in the reference books. Two hundred minerals have been included in the descriptions (part V I). These have been selected with great care, although the list is necessarily an arbitrary one based upon the writer's experience and judgment. All the common minerals and the more important useful ones are included in the two hundred. Others have been selected for practice in testing and also to give a comprehensive view of the mineral kingdom. In most miner alogical text-books brief descriptions of some of the rare minerals are given. In the writer's Opinion this is not advisable, for one needs a full description of a rare mineral in order to identify it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manual of Mineralogy and Petrography: Containing the Elements of the Science of Minerals and Rocks, for the Use of the Practical Mineralogist and Geologist and for Instruction in Schools and Colleges The preface to the third edition of this work (1878) is as follows: "This Manual in its present shape is new throughout. In the renovation it has undergone, new illustrations have been introduced, an improved arrangement of the species has been adopted, the table for the determination of minerals has been reconstructed, and the chapter on Rocks has been expanded to a length and fulness that renders it a prominent part of the work. But while modified greatly in all its parts, it is still simple in its methods of presenting the facts in crystallography, and in all other explanations; and special prominence is given, as in former editions, to the more common minerals, with only a brief mention of others. The old practical feature is retained of placing the ores under the prominent metal they contain, and of giving in connection some information as to mines and mining industry. "The student is referred to the Text-book of Mineralogy, prepared mainly by Mr. E. S. Dana, for a detailed exposition of the subject of crystallography after Naumann's and Miller's systems, and also of optical mineralogy and other physical branches of the science; to the Manual of Determinative Mineralogy and Blowpipe Analysis by Professor George J. Brush, for a thorough work on the use of the blowpipe, and complete tables for the determination of minerals; and to the author's Descriptive Mineralogy and its Appendixes for a comprehensive treatise on minerals." In this, the fourth, edition the general plan and scope of the work remain unchanged. But it has been revised throughout, and brought down to the year 1886 in its descriptions of minerals, and in the introduction of the many new species announced during the past eight years. The chapter on Rocks has been rewritten, rearranged, much enlarged, and supplied with new illustrations. The work is greatly indebted, for facts about ores and other useful minerals, to the excellent annual report on the "Mineral Resources of the United States," by Mr. Albert Williams, Jr., published by the United States Geological Survey. The author would acknowledge also his obligations to Prof. B. J. Harrington, of Montreal, for the revision of the list of localities in Ontario and Quebec.
