An introduction to quantitative geochemical modeling for the researcher and advanced student.
'One of the books strengths is its use of numerous examples that
demonstrate how the mathematical methods can be applied … The book
will no doubt promote the future development of geochemistry, and
it is strongly recommended.' Eos Transactions, American Geophysical
Union
'There is no existing book quite like this: it should be compulsory
reading for advanced students, and researchers of geochemistry …
The price offers excellent value for money, for a book that will
find itself in use for years to come.' David Pyle, Geological
Magazine
