An understanding of rocks and the minerals that comprise them lies at the core of every geologist’s education. As more curricula combine mineralogy and petrology into a single course, Raymond and Johnson have responded with a concise introduction to the study of Earth materials. The authors have written at a level that won’t intimidate students encountering fundamental concepts for the first time, yet with enough rigor that they’ll be well prepared for future study. A broad approach to the subject that incorporates fluids and soils will appeal to instructors who teach engineering and environmental science students as well as future geoscientists. Abundant illustrations reinforce all of the ideas in the text. Many images are presented in color, with additional color images available at waveland.com/Raymond-Johnson. Problems appear throughout the book, encouraging a deeper understanding for students. Helpful appendices make it easy for instructors to assign further exercises in rock and mineral identification as well as optical mineralogy and petrography.

Author Loren H. Amundson is a fifth-generation native of Colton, Minnehaha County, South Dakota. Great-great-grandparents rest in five cemeteries in the county with many of their descendants in these and other cemeteries. He has spent all but five years of his life as a resident of his home state, forty-four back in Minnehaha County. Dr. Amundson is not new to writing and publishing. His long career in clinical family practice and academic family medicine allowed him the opportunity to create educational programs, conduct clinical research projects, and edit and publish medical quarterlies. From these activities came over fifty peer-reviewed chapters and papers in refereed medical journals and books. He retired as professor emeritus of family medicine from the USD School of Medicine in 1996, having founded the department in 1974. Since then he and his Minnesota born-and-raised wife Mavis have traveled widely in addition to being co-cheerleaders with their two children and spouses for many academic, arts and sports endeavors of their five grandchildren, most now young adults. They became first-time great-grandparents of Lucas in June of 2008 to add a new generation to their family lives. In the waning years of the twentieth century, family genealogy became a way of life for him. Combined family studies led to six books being published to tell their stories and histories. Having completed the Norwegian, Swedes and More series in early 2007, he now produces genealogical histories for family members, friends, and others who have provided considerable history on collateral or extended families. Enjoy.
