Reviews'The new edition of Using Geochemical Data is not only an excellent text for a geochemistry course, but it also provides an easy source to find geochemical information ... The chapter on analyzing geochemical data is outstanding and the information in this chapter is not generally available in other geochemical texts. The chapters on major and trace elements are not only useful in geochemistry, but are also important in igneous and sedimentary petrology courses ... it is easy to look up specific geochemical diagrams in the book, see how they are constructed, and what the limitations are for their applications. The discussion of trace elements in evaluating various magmatic processes and tectonic settings ... is clearly in a league of its own ... I strongly recommend the book as both a geochemical textbook and as an easy-to-use reference for geochemists and non-geochemists alike.' Kent C. Condie, New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology

Edition DescriptionRevised edition
SynopsisThis textbook is a complete rewrite, and expansion of Hugh Rollinson's highly successful 1993 book Using Geochemical Data: Evaluation, Presentation, Interpretation. Rollinson and Pease's new book covers the explosion in geochemical thinking over the past three decades, as new instruments and techniques have come online. It provides a comprehensive overview of how modern geochemical data are used in the understanding of geological and petrological processes. It covers major element, trace element, and radiogenic and stable isotope geochemistry. It explains the potential of many geochemical techniques, provides examples of their application, and emphasizes how to interpret the resulting data. Additional topics covered include the critical statistical analysis of geochemical data, current geochemical techniques, effective display of geochemical data, and the application of data in problem solving and identifying petrogenetic processes within a geological context. It will be invaluable for all graduate students, researchers, and professionals using geochemical techniques., This textbook is a complete overhaul, rewrite, and expansion of Hugh Rollinson's highly successful 1993 book. Pease and Rollinson's new book brings the subject completely up to date with modern techniques and data analysis. It will be invaluable for all graduate students, researchers, and professionals using geochemical techniques.
