About this title

Synopsis

In the case of nearly all branches of science a great advance was made when accurate quantitative methods were used of more qualitative. One great advantage of this is that it necessitates more accurate thought, points out what remains to be learned, and sometimes small residual quantities, which otherwise would escape attention, indicate important facts.

Review

"...thoughtful and meticulous compilation...Ramsay and Huber's book deserves to be widely used." -- Geological Magazine, 1985

"It is a well-produced and authoritative book in an area generally lacking in such texts." -- Journal of Structural Geology, 1985

"It is an excellent text for a senior undergraduate course. Any field geologist working in deformed terrain ought to have a copy..." -- Geoscience Canada, 1985

"Ramsay and Huber are to be congratulated for producing an excellent text that will greatly simplify the teaching of a difficult subject." -- Geology, 1985
