The text progresses logically from basic mineralogical principles to complex real-world applications, making it accessible to both students and professionals.

 
Readers learn practical identification techniques based on characteristics like hardness and luster, while gaining insights into how modern analytical methods, such as X-ray crystallography and electron microscopy, have revolutionized our understanding of mineral structures. The book pays particular attention to major mineral groups, including silicates, carbonates, and precious metals, explaining their significance in both natural systems and industrial processes.

 
What sets this book apart is its interdisciplinary approach, connecting pure mineralogy with urgent contemporary issues like sustainability, environmental impact, and global supply chains. By examining minerals from both microscopic and macroscopic perspectives, the text provides a complete picture of these essential earth materials. The inclusion of recent research findings and emerging technologies makes it especially valuable for those seeking to understand the crucial role minerals play in modern technology and environmental challenges.

Saving Ourselves from Big Car

David Obst

Cars are killing people and making the planet uninhabitable. Crashes take the lives of more than a million people each year. Air pollution linked to motor vehicles contributes to even more untimely deaths. Highways and unsafe streets have devastated cities, yet traffic congestion still swallows up countless hours. And carbon emissions from transportation are a key driver of climate change, which threatens to make the world unlivable. Why do we still worship at the altar of the car? How can we find alternatives that are healthier for the planet and ourselves? 
  
This book exposes how "Big Car"—the complex of companies in the automobile, oil, insurance, media, and concrete industries that promote and entrench car dependence—has pursued profit at the expense of the common good. David Obst explores how Big Car gained almost immeasurable influence over our lives, weighing the benefits and the costs of reliance on private automobiles. He details how industry covered up the harms of lead additives, fought against seatbelts, and continues to fund climate-change denialism. Obst considers the future of mobility, surveying how cities are experimenting with forms of transportation that offer alternatives to the dominance of cars. Provocative and comprehensive, Saving Ourselves from Big Car is a wake-up call for us to change how we use cars before it's too late.
