Sedimentary Petrology / The Origin of Sediments and Sedimentary Rocks
Wolf von Engelhardt, William D Johns
This book is organized in five main chapters which deal with parent materials, weathering, transport and deposition of clastic constituents by waters and wind, the formation of chemical sediments, and diagenesis. It is directed to advanced students of all disciplines of geosciences, and as well to those who work on or carry on research dealing with problems whose solutions depend on the knowledge of how sediments originate and become solid rocks.
