5 Now how Elephants should come to be buried in Churches, is a Question not easily answered... Robert Plot (1677)
6 Preface Our aim in writing this book is to try to show how igneous rocks can be persuaded to reveal some ofthe secrets of their origins. The data of igneous rocks consist of field relations, texture, mineralogy, and geochemistry. Additionally, experimental petrology tells us how igneous systems might be expected to behave. Working on this material we attempt to show how hypotheses concerning the origins and evolution of magmas are proposed and tested, and thus illuminate the interesting and fundamental problems of petrogenesis. The book assumes a modest knowledge of basic petrography, mineralogy, classification, and regional igneous geology. It has a role complementary to various established texts, several of which are descriptively good and give wide coverage and evaluation of petrogenetic ideas in various degrees of detail. Existing texts do not on the whole, however, deal with methodology, though this is one of the more important aspects of the subject. At first sight it may appear that the current work is a guidebook for the prospective research worker and thus has little relevance for the non-specialist student of geology. We hope this will prove to be far from the case. The methodological approach has an inherent interest because it can provide the reader with problems he can solve for himself, and as an almost incidental consequence he will acquire a satisfying understanding. Moreover, if the study of igneous rocks has any value at all for the non-specialist, it is at least as likely to lie in the scientific discipline of its methods as in any other aspect of the subject. This book is not built round any specific course. There is much in it that would be of benefit to and accessible to any undergraduate student of geology; but at the same time postgraduate students and even teachers of petrology may find it useful. In short, it is offered to petrologists of all ages. The authors are particularly grateful to R. W. Cleverly, P. J. Betton and D. Kiernan-Walker for their attempts to minimise the number of mistakes in the manuscript, and to Mrs P. Jackson for her excellent typing. Oxford 1978 K. G. Cox J. D. Bell R. J. Pankhurst
