Mineralogical, petrological, physical, and economical aspects are developed in a succession of 14 chapters. Special 'info boxes' discuss topics for those wishing to deepen their knowledge of the subject. Also included is a glossary, a comprehensive bibliography, as well as descriptions of modern techniques. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eGranites are considered in their geological spatial and temporal frame, in relation with Plate Tectonics and Earth History, and assisted by a large number of high quality illustrations.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnne Nedelec, \u003cem\u003eUniversity of Toulouse\u003c\/em\u003e, Jean-Luc Bouchez, \u003cem\u003eUniversity of Toulouse\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAnne Nedelec and Jean-Luc Bouchez are Professors in Earth Sciences at the University of Toulouse.
