This book examines the analytical methods of igneous rock chemistry and the criteria for judging the quality of rock analyses that emerged during the late 19th century. The author's purpose, in part, was to encourage a more rigorous and critical approach to rock analysis within the field of petrography. The book explores the complexities of rock analysis, common analytical errors, and ways to account for them. The author's emphasis on accurate and representative analysis signaled a turning point for the field of igneous petrology, as it facilitated more reliable and standardized practices.
