Principles and Applications of Geochemistry

This book provides a very readable and informative introduction. I have had it for several years and it is a good reference as well.

The book is in most places very well-written. I might have wished it to be organized differently, or maybe the course I took could have been more closely tied to the book's organization. Or perhaps it's just that I haven't studied chemistry in quite a long time. . .but that's me, not the book.

I got the book, it is in great condition (1.5 semester later), and still is extremely useful. Also, it is a hardback edition :)

Wow...this has a lot of technical infomration and equations. If you are required to read this for a class, it is not too bad to read, a little dry (not suprising). However, my feedback is more on the seller. The book was in great shape for being used and arrived arrive in plenty of time for class.

The book came in great condition, but take note that these are soft cover editions!

Very general, and many formulas are not derived but simply stated.

This text is very easy to read and wide in its breadth. If you are looking for an good introductory text, you have found it. I would suggest using this as a starting place before going into more detailed content.

My issue with this book is not its content, but it's manufacture. After only 2 months of relatively light use the book has pages coming out of it and the binding is falling apart. This is the paperback version, but even so, it should be lasting MUCH longer than this. Very poorly made. Shame on Prentice Hall for producing such a poorly made product!

Very good
