<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p><i>Principles of Geochemistry</i> offers broader coverage of the field than is currently available in other texts, including an in-depth discussion of the geochemistry of the solid state and trace element geochemistry.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Ottonello's text represents the broadest coverage of geochemistry yet published, and is the only book in the field to discuss interionic static potentials in crystals, thermodynamic properties based on lattice vibrations, and crystalline defects and their effect on stability relations of minerals. Includes nearly two hundred tables, three hundred figures, and an abundance of examples.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>This revised and fully updated English-language edition of Giulio Ottonello's Principi di Geochimica provides comprehensive coverage of the entire field of geochemistry, including a basic review of the fundamental physical chemistry principles of solid, liquid, and gaseous states of matter.<P>Principles of Geochemistry represents the broadest coverage of geochemistry yet published and is the only book in the field to discuss interionic static potentials in crystals, thermodynamic properties based on lattice vibrations, and crystalline defects and their effect on stability relations of minerals.<P>With nearly two hundred tables, three hundred figures, and an abundance of examples, Principles of Geochemistry will appeal to both advanced students in earth sciences and researchers in the fields of petrology, minerology, and geochemistry.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Geochemistry is a vast subject, and Giulio Ottonellos book covers a very large spectrum of the subject in an authoritative way. This is perhaps because of his research involvements in a variety of problems in geochemistry that include solid state geochemistry, trace element geochemistry, development of electrolyte sensors, fluid-rock interaction, and topics at the interface between thermodynamics and crystal chemistry. . . . The book should appeal to both students and active researchers, especially when they need a good exposure to fields outside of their own specialty.<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Giulio Ottenello is professor of earth science at the Universitá degli Studi di Genova, Italy.
