Reviewers of the German edition of this book found that the text deals with facts and descriptions of limestones rather than with glo­ bal speculations on facies models or large-scale sedimentation pat­ terns. The book is neither a picture-book nor a recipe-book for facies interpretation of carbonates, but an attempt to summarize the present 'state of the art' of a rather small but increasingly more im­ portant part of geology. The book is written for advanced undergraduate and post-grad­ uate students as well as for research workers and exploration geol­ ogists who need rapid and intensive training in modern methods of microfacies analysis. The book should facilitate decisions about which methods to use in one’s own investigations, and where to look for comparative studies. Microfacies interpretation of carbonate rocks can not rely solely on the investigation of sedimentological and paleontological thin­ section data, but must also consider geological and palecological cri­ teria. It is beyond the scope of this book to describe all of these as­ pects. However, broader applications are indicated in the chapters dealing with the relationships between geochemical as well as physi­ cal data and the depositional and diagenetic fabric oflimestones.

    Why a warmer climate may be humanity’s longest-lasting legacyThe human impact on Earth’s climate is often treated as a hundred-year issue lasting as far into the future as 2100, the year in which most climate projections cease. In The Long Thaw, David Archer, one of the world’s leading climatologists, reveals the hard truth that these changes in climate will be 'locked in,' ess...
