The System of Mineralogy of James Dwight Dana and… di James D. Dana
Silica minerals
Brilliant and absorbing history of Earth's formation and development from 4 billion six hundred million years ago to the late 1800s...how welcome would be a modern sequel which would introduce the most recent discoveries and theories which both support and change Dana's words. This book was recommended by Oliver Sacks as one of his favorite inspirations.
Textbook for undergraduate geology majors
