I bought this book because is the basic handbook for my thesis. I have been suggested to buy it by my supervisor. I like that it contains most of the minerals and rocks found in thin sections while it is not so voluminous. Although the descriptions are short, they are accurate. Though, there are significant differences between the geological examples included in the book and the archaeological samples.
