Title: A Classic
Product review: This is a great classic book about the fundamentals of igneous differentiation. Although some of it is dated and superseded by decades of new research, it is amazing how insightful Bowen was in the 1920's. It is interesting and important for modern petrologists (and certainly students) to read this book to better understand some of the principles behind our current thinking and to see how far we have come (or not in some cases) in understanding the evolution of igneous rocks.
