Book Description
This text attempts to enhance students' understanding of geological processes by showing them how to use chemical principles in solving geological problems. Emphasizing a quantitative approach to problem solving, this new text demonstrates how chemical principles control these processes in atomic and large-scale environments. In this way, students may see that the principles and applications of inorganic geochemistry are accessible, internally consistent, and useful for understanding the world around us. And as professional geologists, this understanding may help them to predict the outcome of chemical reactions occurring in geological processes and to realize the important role they play in characterizing our environment.
