This volume examines the magmatic precursors of igneous rocks: the raw materials from which the oceanic and continental crust, together with their associated sedimentary and metamorphic rocks, are ultimately derived. The book will be a valuable reference work for all earth scientists concerned with terrestrial magmatism and the role it plays in the evolution of the outer parts of our planet.
