Structural Analysis of Metamorphic Tectonites is a comprehensive book written by Francis J. Turner. The book focuses on the structural analysis of metamorphic rocks, which are rocks that have undergone changes in their mineralogy, texture, and structure due to high pressure and temperature. The book covers various topics related to the analysis of metamorphic tectonites, including the principles of structural geology, the classification of metamorphic rocks, and the deformation mechanisms that occur during metamorphism. The author also discusses the use of various analytical techniques, such as X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy, to study the mineralogy and microstructure of metamorphic rocks.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a different aspect of structural analysis. The first chapter provides an overview of the principles of structural geology and introduces the reader to the basic terminology used in the field. The following chapters focus on the different types of metamorphic rocks and their structural characteristics, including foliation, lineation, and cleavage.The later chapters of the book cover more advanced topics, such as the deformation mechanisms that occur during metamorphism, the role of fluids in metamorphic processes, and the use of structural analysis in the interpretation of tectonic events. The author also includes numerous case studies throughout the book, which provide real-world examples of the concepts discussed.Overall, Structural Analysis of Metamorphic Tectonites is an essential resource for anyone interested in the structural analysis of metamorphic rocks. The book is written in a clear and concise style, making it accessible to both students and professionals in the field of geology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
