About this product
Product Information
Meteorite research is fundamental to our understanding of the origin and early history of the Solar System. This book considers the mechanism and timing of core formation and basaltic volcanism on asteroids, and the effects of heating water-rich bodies. Results from meteorite research are placed in a galactic setting, and a theory is proposed for the origin of the planets of our Solar System. This advanced yet succinct introduction classifies meteorites in the context of their ages and origin.

'Graduate students and researchers with geologic training will find Meteorites an invaluable reference for concise distillations of the essential properties of each meteorite group. ... This book pays appropriate homage to the extraordinary treasure trove that falls out of the sky and into our laboratories.'Rhian Jones, Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, University of New Mexico, 'Graduate students and researchers with geologic training will find Meteorites an invaluable reference for concise distillations of the essential properties of each meteorite group. … This book pays appropriate homage to the extraordinary treasure trove that falls out of the sky and into our laboratories.' Rhian Jones, University of New Mexico, 'Hutchison's book will serve as an invaluable reference for anyone wanting to understand the diversity of meteorites.' Geological Magazine, "Hutchison's work is certainly the best up-to-date scholarly work available on meteorites. The seventeen-page "Introduction" is an excellent primer to meteorites in general and would more than satisfy members of the public curious about rocks from space."
