Opis

This book provides the background, physical instrumentation and geological aspects behind any study of the magnetic anisotropy of a rock in a comprehensive and practical way. After studying this book, readers in the geosciences will be encouraged to use this simple, rapid and inexpensive technique in their studies of rocks.

Recenzje

Provides the only comprehensive book on a subject that is important to a wide range of earth scientists ... the reader can't go wrong - Tectonophysics; This book gives us a comprehensive background to physical, instrumentational and geological aspects - Pascal Geode; Does an excellent job of bringing together all aspects of magnetic fabric analysis and I happily recommend it to all who have not worked previously in this field but (should) have an interest. They will surely find an application to their liking ... those of us working in the field probably want to have this book as a reference on our shelves - Geological Magazine
